Humankind comes across as a non sexist term.

I'm over the whole stupid thing - especially when they released that toilet cleaning blaming males ONLY for a dirty smelly toilet, suggesting that women don't shyte or their shyte doesn't smell. Some feminist male haters with penis envy have just gone too far now, and I have better things to do than waste my time on these looney tunes.
