I much prefer the term 'woman' to 'female', but it looks as if I can't avoid recasting the schema using the latter term.
- P1 A newspaper reported a story about the president, framed as a male making a young female cry.
- P2 Feminism has taught us that females are not delicate creatures who need to be protected from distress by males.
- C An automatic assumption that the president ill-treated the female, such as I thought I observed being made in the Bush's inner asshole thread, would be anti-feminist.
I don't think you can say that a female was not a significant component in the article.
