How could you isolate such an effect? I'm sure the problem is linked to society as a whole -- the words only make sense because people relate them to genetalia.

People have done research by asking people what they think about such gendered terms, and people in the less represented gender (in whichever situation you are talking about) tend to dislike them.
- cdot2 5y agoWhich is the less represented gender here?
- Cthulhu_ 5y agoDoes that actually matter?
- CJefferson 5y agoI'm guessing women are under-represented in the Professional Audio Manufacturers Alliance. I will admit I don't have evidence of that.
- liaukovv 5y agoMaybe less represented gender likes this terminology less because they understand it less(because they are less represented) I'm just saying waving away the need for proving points before taking acion is doing more harm than good
