Okay so what youre saying is that we should differentiate between male and female actors with specific words to… ensure heteronormativity in the way you see it? Despite feminists calling the exact opposite for several decades before you were even born?
Then, if we jump forward to the 1970s and 1980s, women began to choose the
term ‘actor’ instead of ‘actress’ as a direct result of the women’s movement
and an awareness of gender bias in language. Women began to take back the
term ‘actor’, and it’s often used today.
Zoë Wannamaker explains that in the 1970s and 1980s there was ‘a stigma’ – a
feeling that people disapproved – of being called an actress. This was because
the word actress seemed to have the ‘connotation’, or suggested meaning, of
being a prostitute
So just so you know, you’re insisting on implying all women actors to be whores. Sexist as fuck
You need to do better, no matter how archaic your inner world is or whatever conservative bumfucknowhere you live in.
Idk how long you spent googling, trying to find something that would support your point, but the fact that the best you could come up with was only relevant to the UK in the 1970s is p funny. Did you think you were arguing with Elton John?

Guy who definitely isn’t a conservative was just trying to enforce 60 year old social norms a minute ago lol
Yeah I wrote that on my mobile in like a minute flat, lol.
Just how young or ignorant do you need to be to not know that feminism doesn’t want women actors to be called “actresses” (as it implies being a prostitute)?
It’s what feminism has been doing SINCE the 70’s. Not “IN the seventies.”
One of us clearly has better command of the English language. Not that I’m appealing to authority, but, weirdly you dropped arguing over “the male form” after I linked a Wiki article on what a lemma is… Guess you hadn’t heard that word before? You’re welcome for the lesson. ;>
The lemma is the default.
