The way English works (or was supposed to at least), "man" is supposed to be a generic term for a person. "Mankind" is supposed to mean all people.
Things got weird when we eventually started calling males "men" so now the word has two things it's referring too.
In general though, human doesn't need to be changed because it's referring to people in general.
It's hard to chNge something that is so ingrained in society. Besides a lot of our words come from the old Greek languages. I totally understand the reasons, and I agree that we should look into it, I'm fairly certain it will never happen.
You can make a snowoman

It's humafestly wrong to use the M word. Language that uses the M word gives us all an African-American eye. Think of humahumaity! It's time we stopped Caucasian-washing this problem.
Sounds like someone needs a helicopter ride

Or Hukitten, so it doesn't trigger people who are anti human. We should also paint country flags rainbow colors and make breakfast cereal unicorn shaped.

Then you'd have to change the word woman too because man is in that as well.
Totally.
And carrots shouldn't be used for a noses either. It's very phallic and triggering for most people.
The sooner someone instigates ww3 and we all nuke each other to particles the better.
I recently heard that there are billion genders, so I'm quite offended for having to choose one of 76.
Male superiority? LoL, hahaha, right :P
But still, I don't think we should change the words :)
I agree with the option 'it's just a fucking word'.
Also the whole 76 genders bull crap, there aren't 76 genders, there are 2. And then there are delusional people.
Do want to make a snowfuck? Do you want to make a snowcunt? Maybe a snowdick?
