How come only 'males' are allowed to answer this? I watch Kristi Burke, who is not on your list.

My assumption is that, it will filter ‘house fix up’, ‘makeup’ etc. and higher chance I will discover a channel I would follow over time.

I will check out @kristiburke.

You may be surprised to learn that women can have interests besides house fix up and makeup. Men can also be interested in those channels. Why not specify that you don't want those types of recommendations, rather than ignoring answers from women entirely?

It sounds like I have offered you.

I know woman has a wide spectrum of interests besides house fix up and makeup, some will have overlap of interests with my own.

I was thinking about specify some form of type, but I was afraid I it would scared people from answering, or it will stop me from discovering some new, due to limited of my own imagine.

It's not too late to edit your post and welcome answers from women, while specifying which topics you don't want included.

like a sad it hard specifying which topics you don’t want included, when sometimes it there can channel and person that you like to watch. Sometimes you filter due to personalty type, presentation form, topic, cadence, channel type, etc.

A example is @morning-brew is some I would by default filter out, but videos with Macy Gilliam, is videos that I liked.

Angela Collier: She’s a physicist who does videos on science or science adjacent topics. Most of her videos are pretty funny and accessible and if you’re more interested in math stuff, she has a few videos or segments of videos that go more into that.

Girlfriend Reviews: Comedic game reviews.

Jenny Nicholson: Video essays/rants about various pop culture things.

Lindsay Ellis: Video essays. Although I think she’s mostly been posting on Nebula now. But her old videos are decent.

Simone Giertze: Comedic maker. Started out doing shitty robots but has evolved more into a design channel. The videos are still funny, but the projects are more sincere attempts to make something fun or useful.

Luna Oi!: She’s Vietnamese and does English language videos about modern Vietnamese history and contemporary life/politics from that perspective. Really interesting if your only previous exposure to the country was a brief bit about the Vietnamese war in history class.

If you like true crime:

  • Truly Criminal
  • Dark Curiosities

Crime Beat is good too, but that's a TV channel uploading their stuff as opposed to a grassroots YTer. Not sure if that matters to you.

The good old red flag of talking about "males and females" instead of men and women like a normal person with a brain.

2

Doesn't mean OP has any bad intentions. I see this happening often in my country where English is not the first language of most people.

It's pretty normal to use male and female when specifying gender as an adjective. Man and woman are nouns. Calling a professional a female manager, or male teacher is normal english grammar. Using male or female as a noun is the red flag, which upon re-reading they also do... hmmmm

But OP constantly genders the channel instead of the creator which feels more non-native english speaker to me. They post about european stuff and in norwegean. Don't read too much into it.

No it's not. At most, you can use it combined ("male worker") but no one normal says "a male" except when talking about animals. People who use it like that for humans are generally a big red flag.

And you don't learn to use "mal" and "female" when you learn english, you only find that in toxic masculinity environments.

3

When learning a language, you don't do literally everything by the book. In the real world you have to figure it out and extrapolate from incomplete information, and sometimes you get it a bit wrong.

From a few minutes playing on an autotranslator, it appears that Norwegan uses the same word for male/man and female/woman. Like the noun and adjective versions are the same word with different conjugations. A Norwegan learning english as a second language can quite reasonably be unaware that there is a distinction there.

2

Language policing of this sort is a red flag indicative of an ignorant, contentious trendhopper picking a fight over conventional English usage.

Those nouns are conventional usage: ::: spoiler we can check the dictionary

female

noun

    1. a female person : a woman or a girl
    2. an individual of the sex that is typically capable of bearing young or producing eggs
  1. a pistillate plant

male

noun

    1. a male person : a man or a boy
    2. an individual of the sex that is typically capable of producing small, usually motile gametes (such as sperm or spermatozoa) which fertilize the eggs of a female
  1. a plant having stamens but no pistils ::: or plainly observe unsolicited speech productions
  • here on lemmy or in the news such as where a mother refers to her daughters as females

    “What if I would have been armed,” she said. “You’re breaking in. What am I supposed to think? My initial thought was we were being robbed—that my daughters, being females, were being kidnapped. You have guns pointed in our faces. Can you just reprogram yourself and see us as humans, as women? A little bit of mercy. […]"

  • in singles communities, personals, classifieds, marketplaces (abundant instances)
  • in book titles & passages containing the word females or males, especially feminist or gender studies literature.

What good cause is advanced by treating nouns female & male as toxic, dirty words?

While OP doesn't appear to be a native English user, this kind of language policing is misguided & exhausting, and we need to police that.
