A hate that word - its very rhythm and cadence irritates the hell out of me.
Go na,na,na,na,na quickly, then do the same with feminity. It's all whimsy mimsy and pathetic sounding. Think Violet Elizabeth Bott for all those who remember reading Just William when we were little.

Now female....that's something else altogether.Smile

Never seen the word before....Confused

I hate it, but only in a pedantic kind of way....

I don't mind the word. It has both positive and negative connotations.

Yes but I also hate 'lady-like'. As in 'oh that's not very lady-like'. FUCK OFF!
