Pronounce females the way you pronounce tamales.

Okay, story time:
When my daughter was born, there was another girl who was born. My daughter had a name chosen already, so the card on her crib said her name. The other baby, did not yet have a name chosen. As a result, the card on her crib said 'Female' and the family's last name. They came up to the NICU, saw the card, and said Female! What a beautiful name!! (pronouncing it like tamale) And I shit you fucking not, that is what they named their kid. @viciousviscosity

@Meshelly I don't envy that girl when she goes to school :-(

Just hoping parents did come to their senses and changed the name at some point.

This Name is Dead @Meshelly

At this point, she'd be 21 or 22. So, if her parents didn't fix it, she can. @isagalaev

@Meshelly yeah, but by this age her name is a huge part of her self, so it's a big decision to change it.

On the other hand, it's all just guessing. She might be a person who doesn't care in the slightest, or whatever :-)

I'm legally changing my name within the next couple years, and I am a lot older than 22. Just because a name was given to you, doesn't mean it's a part of who you are. @isagalaev

@Meshelly I'm saying that treating or not treating your given name as part of who you are is totally subjective :-)

Why would you assume someone was hiding from something just because they are changing their name?
That's false equivalency at best, and just completely stupid at worst. @AzoteSatanico

@Meshelly Because everything other than this reason is just mental/emotional whining bullshit.

You are a fucking idiot. 😂 😂 😂 😂 On a completely related side note: Go fuck yourself. @AzoteSatanico
