I think some words are, generally, free of previously regressive burdens, but I do not count the one you used as one of them. I struggle to think of any disparaging word about women that does not still carry an inherent core of sexism, but there is probably one out there. I do not need to find it.
Honestly, don’t overthink it. It was just that, in my opinion, I thought your word choices were incongruous so I sought out your reasoning. Like I said, thanks for answering - I understand where you’re coming from; but don’t personally agree. There was nothing more to it.
No worries, I understand the confusion.

I didn’t take it as anything more. I am not the one who downvoted you
