I think most all of us here on Lemmy are people with technical background. Most of my professional contacts remained using Reddit, Twitter and even excited when Threads launched.

    I think it’s just more accurate to say that “there are things that only certain people with high physical strength can do.” There’s no reason to gender it.

      I disagree actually, but no offense to you personally. I think it’s better to be specific and clear and say what we mean. It becomes ridiculous to say “some people” when we mean men most of the time.

      Imagine trying to explain to a kid… He asks “are men stronger than females”. You are supposed to say “no, some people are stronger than others” and leave it at that? The poor kid is growing up to be an idiot then, not knowing basic biology. Maybe I’m not understanding you correctly.

        Fyi, just because you took a biology course 15 years ago, doesn’t mean you have a firm grasp on the modern understanding of the subject. Sex and gender are two different things.
