How are people in 2022 still using man and mankind to describe all of humanity?
It's sobsexist and the alternatives are plentiful and don't sound at all awkward or unnatural.
Humans. Humanity. Humankind.
AARRRRGH!!
This was a basic thing we began unpicking in the 90s. It is not hard to shed.
Just... STOP.
Seeing this language this week, especially. FUCK.
This is how they get you to internalise that men are the norm. The only real people. The only people who count as human and deserve bodily autonomy.
It's a central part of the omnipressant apparatus of oppression.
Rid yourself of it. PLEASE.
