It’s fair to read into like that when you usually only hear it used in reference to women. It may not be the intent, but it reframes them as something (daughter, mother, whatever) worthy of empathy rather than someone.

I agree with the original statement and also the correction in ops picture. They both communicate true and valuable information.
