It's also entirely inappropriate, even for Elfen High.
Besides, Astro is insufferable when he's like this.
Well, shit.
I guess... I don't know, vote? Whatever women do anymore.

True, it could be Khan.

I can explain that, actually.
See, insults are based on what society values. And for the last couple thousand years or so, society has valued physical strength and power, because, really, until recently, strength was really damn important and that decided a lot of things. Men, biologically, are stronger than woman (and no this isn't a fucking stereotype or a generalization and yes I know there are exceptions) and because our culture places value on strength, being seen as touchy-feely or sensitive or not society's ideal of "manly" is seen as "weak", hence why "being female" is an insult. In fact, if you look at a lot of insults, it shows - "pussy", "cunt", "bitch" and etcetera.
Society is gradually leaving this, though, because being strong isn't quite as useful as it used to be. So yeah, there you go.

I wish it wasn't like that. I don't see how being too "feminine" for a male or being too "masculine" as a female compared to societal "standards" is an insult. But that's my feminism speaking.
