Women Politicians and Male Politicians: A More "Human" Adjective for Women but Not for Men
Post Body

https://becauseits2015.wordpress.com/2019/12/07/women-politicians-and-male-politicians-a-more-human-adjective-for-women-but-not-for-men/

What are people's thoughts on the phenomenon of using "woman" as an adjective instead of "female" (e.g., "our company has a woman CEO"), and the fact that it doesn't really occur for men (e.g., hardly anyone would refer to a "man CEO")? Does this difference suggest a greater emphasis on the humanity of women than men, or are there other explanations?
