sub might turn into orca only sub

For those of you out of the loop, Reddit admins took it upon themselves to remove a meme about Orca's attacking yachts. source

Not even that...literally a screenshot of an article by The Atlantic saying the orcas are bad for attacking boats and then underneath it a scene from The Office with the caption altered to say "You know what? Now I'm going to root for the orcas even harder." source

It’s pretty narrow minded to limit growing a mustache to those born male.

That wasn't my intention, nor the content of my comment.

Note the "even if". That means we're starting from a position of everybody eventually being able to grow a moustache if they get old enough and note that it isn't the case. Then we check if it's the case for everyone born male, and again it's not the case. At no point did we assume that there were no people born female who are eventually able to grow a moustache with age, though it is implied that not being able to grow a moustache regardless of age is less uncommon among people born female or at least perceived to be.
