He refers to women as females. (To which Dave Barry commented on what a woman might reply to those lyrics: "Gee, thank you male! Let's have sex relations!")

I am not bothered by referring to women as "females" because "females" and "males" is used everyday in my personal and professional lives as much as "men" and "women" is used. Not every "female" is a "woman;" and vice versa. Most heterosexual men want their woman to have been born female, so it makes sense to use female as a surface-level qualifier.

I am however humored by people who have an issue with women being called "females" but they don't protest when women are called "girls" in so many NPC threads.

Cen1aur1963 deserves his balls kicked for even typing "girls" and "honies."
