Yeah…but then what should i do? Many people have as a mother tongue a language that is gendered (the case for many langs in europe and south america since they come from latin) and usually male is used as standard when you don’t know the interlocutor gender or is used to describe a group that has 2 or more genders.
Saying something like
People who assume default maleness should be locked up anyway
Is just wrong because you are just blaming innocent people for doing something they have been doing all their lives for reasons beyond their control.
