    Context is important. In your case, you’re using female to designate a biological characteristic - aka, a reproductive ability that the cult is specifically exploiting. Some men, especially online, use “female” in a way where normally someone would use the term “woman”, in an attempt to dehumanize women. It’s unfortunate that the person you were talking to couldn’t tell the difference, but as for never forgiving them, maybe a gentle correction could be more warranted?

    I always thought the idea of “say what you said” was a dumbed down version of the real purpose of a conclusion. Sure you can summarize, but a concluding section is the place for a lot of other things, like acknowledging or suggesting unresolved questions/need for additional research, placing a quote or anecdote that contextualizes your findings, or a call to action depending on the style of the piece.
