This is probably a stupid question but don’t understand it because it keeps happening more now than ever especially since Diddy. If I take my girlfriend to a restaurant she does not want to go to across state lines is that sex trafficking? Since we will probably have sex later?

    You’re probably not a native speaker, so please be warned - the term “female” is reserved for animals, just like the term “male”. It can be viewed as rather disrespectful when talking about human beings. The right word to use is “woman”. You used the word “man” correctly there while using the derogatory word “female” at the same time, which can make you seem misogynistic.

        It could be fine in certain contexts - for example medical contexts - but I think an important distinction that made it stand out in your comment was that you used female for women but didn’t use the equivalent “male” for men 😊
