Because using “female” makes you sound like an incel.
No, but that’s because “male” doesn’t have the same kind of bigotry-tainted political connotation. Which is pretty much the point.
Incels use “female” as a noun. Using it as an adjective is fine.
Fighting the good fight. “Woman” is no more an adjective than “man” is, and no, people don’t write it that way because of the relatively new incel phenomenon. They write it that way because they’re using the word incorrectly.
It might actually be a case of hypercorrection here. Replacing female with woman even when female is the correct word.
