Hi

I am looking to broaden my youtube subscriptions for other female channel.

The reason I am specifically looking for female channels is that of most of my subscriptions are to male channels like:

but I only have few female channel that I like:

If you are a male, what are some of your female channel that you like?

    The good old red flag of talking about “males and females” instead of men and women like a normal person with a brain.

      Doesn’t mean OP has any bad intentions. I see this happening often in my country where English is not the first language of most people.

      Language policing of this sort is a red flag indicative of an ignorant, contentious trendhopper picking a fight over conventional English usage.

      Those nouns are conventional usage:

      we can check the dictionary

      female

      noun

        1. a female person : a woman or a girl
        2. an individual of the sex that is typically capable of bearing young or producing eggs
      1. a pistillate plant

      male

      noun

        1. a male person : a man or a boy
        2. an individual of the sex that is typically capable of producing small, usually motile gametes (such as sperm or spermatozoa) which fertilize the eggs of a female
      1. a plant having stamens but no pistils

      or plainly observe unsolicited speech productions

      • here on lemmy or in the news such as where a mother refers to her daughters as females

        “What if I would have been armed,” she said. “You’re breaking in. What am I supposed to think? My initial thought was we were being robbed—that my daughters, being females, were being kidnapped. You have guns pointed in our faces. Can you just reprogram yourself and see us as humans, as women? A little bit of mercy. […]"

      • in singles communities, personals, classifieds, marketplaces (abundant instances)
      • in book titles & passages containing the word females or males, especially feminist or gender studies literature.

      What good cause is advanced by treating nouns female & male as toxic, dirty words?

      While OP doesn’t appear to be a native English user, this kind of language policing is misguided & exhausting, and we need to police that.

      It’s pretty normal to use male and female when specifying gender as an adjective. Man and woman are nouns. Calling a professional a female manager, or male teacher is normal english grammar. Using male or female as a noun is the red flag, which upon re-reading they also do… hmmmm

      But OP constantly genders the channel instead of the creator which feels more non-native english speaker to me. They post about european stuff and in norwegean. Don’t read too much into it.

        No it’s not. At most, you can use it combined (“male worker”) but no one normal says “a male” except when talking about animals. People who use it like that for humans are generally a big red flag.

        And you don’t learn to use “mal” and “female” when you learn english, you only find that in toxic masculinity environments.

          When learning a language, you don’t do literally everything by the book. In the real world you have to figure it out and extrapolate from incomplete information, and sometimes you get it a bit wrong.

          From a few minutes playing on an autotranslator, it appears that Norwegan uses the same word for male/man and female/woman. Like the noun and adjective versions are the same word with different conjugations. A Norwegan learning english as a second language can quite reasonably be unaware that there is a distinction there.
