(1) I never understood "man made" as
"made by males".

(2) One of primary meanings of "artificial"
for me is fake/pretending/misleading,
making this new proposed tags confusing,
maybe especially for non-native speakers

(3) see inherent problems with deprecating
highly used tags

(4) I would prefer to not use OSM as a tool
to change language, especially if done at 
cost of making more complicated for
mappers. AFAIK term "man made" and it's
meaning remains standard and is well 
understood
Disclaimer: not a native speaker.
(1) and (4) may be wrong.

Also as not a native speaker I am confused
by sentence in proposal
"when people read of her generic man,
people form mental pictures of"

What is meaning of "her generic man"?
