Pro tip: It is often a good heuristic to identify a sexist by their use of 'male' and 'female' for humans instead of 'men' and 'women', because it sounds dehumanizing. Call them 'women', never females, etc, etc.

What on earth are you talking about? I hope this is a joke and no a serious "tip".
I've heard this said in serious context before, so I don't think it's a joke. Only really get brought up when someone says "female" though.
Thanks for mansplaining that.
