Pronouns need to be announced because the goal of progs is to so erase the differences of sex until our society resembles the final scene in Rock Bottom, one of my favorite episodes of Sponge Bob Squarepants:
That’s just about a boy dressing like a girl to rebel against his parents… that doesn’t apply to people who genuinely feel their gender identity doesn’t match their biological sex.
I don’t think efforts to be inclusive are exactly “gotta”.
You don’t have to change anything.
False. Gender abolition is its own thing separate from transgender acceptance and is only supported by a small minority of those who support transgender acceptance.
What does it matter?
If you are born male, and you want to be referred to as female, I’m thinking if you are successful at presenting female, people will call you she because they won’t know the difference. Same with using the womens restroom. I’m not thinking those people have much problem with pronouns. Caitlin Jenner might because everyone knows she used to be a he.
The people who have issues are the males who want to be female but look like males trying to look female. They don’t appear to be female. They are unsuccessful.
People who want to be they them, just use their name. My daughter has an acquaintance that is androgenous and not surprisingly, likes to be referred to as they them. I promise, if you met them, you would not be surprised. Although , my OCD has issues with referring to a singular as a plural. But I also try to not offend people. So I use their name.
If you get offended by how strangers refer to you, then imo you have problems. Worry about yourself.
No, not me, but they are forcing high school students to indicate their pronouns on their profiles, and pass a “health” class that includes such nonsense as all of these newfound genders before graduation.
I do hope no one is complaining about Filipina nurses on visas or Indians on H1 visas getting the high paid technical jobs over native born & raised.
Another poster was right years ago, and to him I apologize because he was right. They’re teaching actual math & science while we’re teaching condoms and preferred gender pronouns
Female is a sex. Not a gender. Sex is biology, not a social construct. Woman is a gender. That’s why the solution to the sports issue is simple - make it female, not “women’s”.
Thanks to critprogs, we now have to be more precise in everyday usage of the language.
Bruce Jenner can pretend to be a “woman”, he can never be female. He can win “Woman of the Year”, he can never be Female of the Year.
