Why does it always have to be huMAN, and MANkind when describing general homo sapien populations? Shouldn't we then create the words like huwoman and womankind also?

is there any word that someone won't find offense?

No cause men ran the world and women had babies

Isn't the word human offensive? (Page 3)

  so by your logic since men do not rule the world the word mankind should be changed. im sure thats not what you meant but its what you said deductively.

  @AriadneSky no because it was always mankind to begin with. Man were and still are generally more valued than a women. But I assume that gap will shrink the more advanced we become. Eventually gender will disspaear and both will relatively look the same

  maybe people thought the word human going from eatth to people was a joke when it was first used. maybe when man went from referring to humans to men people thought it was absurd. now you accept it bc its all you know. but its no less a joke than wohumankind. or womankind referring to 'humankind'.
  
  its only a joke bc you have no imagination or refuse to use it.

  @AriadneSky Because it is such a clear attempt to fit the "wo" in there. It's kind of like doing a jigsaw puzzle and trying your best to fit that one jigsaw piece in a place it doesn't fit.

  Why does it matter in the first place? We have been referred to as mankind and humans for how many years?
