    What makes me chuckle the most is the fact that OP’s psycho ex partner can be either female or male and yet here we are (or at least I am) thinking that the psychotic ex partner is of the opposite sex

      8th message middle row; heterosexual relationships are the most common globally.

        Not necessarily, I am a heterosexual male and my best female friends refer to me as girl. Just cus you get called girl on my side of the planet doesn’t mean that you’re a girl by any means, either way we won’t know unless OP discloses their partner’s sex.

          The psycho ex is being threatening and an asshole, I doubt they’re using the term “girl” just in a jokey and endearing way. Has more of a “you are my girl” vibe.

          Edit: also, the “bitch” and “whore” are dead giveaways lol

            Fair enough, taking this into account, then as the original commenter said, they’re most likely male. But it still interests me how as a collective society our reactions change based on these facts
