      I think we should go deeper. Rewrote it to avoid any language that might trigger anyone.

      >friend invites me to group-watch cartoons
      >pretty fun
      >they want me to watch stuff with them next week too
      >get invited to their irc
      >they call their weekly cartoon watching night
      >ask why they invited me to watch night
      >they say I don’t count
      >ask why
      >“you’re basically a friend”
      What the? I’m 6’1

      Hope that helped

        “With her and her friends” makes it pretty clear in my opinion, but I guess the use of “female” makes it clear that op is a man

      That could work and would probably be fine here, but saying female in this case is ok because context.

      It was descriptive of his friend, not a label or whatever it is that makes it bad.
