Extension summary

This extension changes the words "man" to "boy" and "men" to "boys" to demonstrate how normal it is for grown women to be referred to as girls but very rarely do grown men get referred to as boys.

This is my first extension, and I consequently have not figured out how to make it work on pages that continue to load while scrolling (such as Facebook). Any feedback would be much appreciated!

User reviews

This is stupid. You want people to call you a woman, and then make an extension to do what people do to you. That doesn't solve anything and makes you look weak.
