This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Its gener neutral male leaning and is context specific. Like bastard or fucker.

"Bastard" is what you call "male leaning" because it was used for male children born outside of marriage who therefore couldn't inherit titles.
It wasn't used much for girls cause they couldn't inherit titles anyway, so it didn't matter.

"Fucker" is "male leaning" cause women were historically not seen as doing the fucking. They were fucked.
