That is not a problem except for men who are way more interested being pedantic over semantics than they are in talking about a visual phenomenon.
Hi, I’m autistic.
What you call pedantry, I call accuracy, precision and consistency in communication.
If you want to use words in a way where they have multiple different possible meanings that are context dependent, you can do that, but its always going to be confusing for me and probably most other male autists, unless there are clear and consistent guidelines as to which context should connote which specific, similar but substantially different meaning.
But there is clear and obvious context. It’s unmissable. You have to look at it before even getting any inkling of an idea that there’s an ambiguous word. This is picture with a guided series of posts and a visual demonstration of what is being discussed. Even with the autism you describe here, it requires purposefully ignoring the context in order to go down this path of fixation of confusing what the word used in the demonstration means, which in turn requires a desire to ignore talking about the actual point to instead focus on best defining how to describe women’s bodies.
