Is your opinion of "International Pronouns Day" positive or negative?


She/her him/he. Female and male. Its a stupid trend/faze thats going on. Your born with a d! ck or p*ssy. Girl or boy. Nothing else. And you cannot change that. No matter how unhappy you are.
@okeydoke do you realize that you’re a retard who focuses on an edge case scenario which happens 0.000000000000001% of the time and try to make it a social standard. If some ugly moddafukka born with 6 fingers on each hand, do we categorize the rest of the normal society to 12 finger standards? Are stores going to start selling 6 fingered gloves? Hell nah!! My guy you are as dumb as they cum. Transgenderism is just another word for eunuchs aka a man who chopped off his nut sack and Pepe or a woman who can’t do that so rages about her pronouns.
@RaceMaster Intersex people roughly make up one percent out of the world population. One out of every hundred people is intersex genetically.
Please tell me more about your scientifically ludicrous bigotry.
@okeydoke Estimated frequency of ovotestes is one in 83,000 births (0.0012%). Ovotestes is considered true hermaphroditism, unlike it’s related and commonly confused conditions 46 XX and 46 XY intersex which are more common around 1.7% however those conditions still have the genetics of either primary female or male with “deformed genitals” which is comparable to the 6 fingers deformation.
There are rare exceptions where a baby is born intersexed, with the sexual organs of both or partially of both, in the old days they were called hermaphrodites, and the parents and doctor would make the decision in the hospital what sex the baby should be raised as, and they would perform the necessary surgery to remove the lesser sexual organ, sometimes they got it wrong…
@RaceMaster , cool ! I have a polydactyl cat
Extremely negative. There are in Engish only 4 (I think ) pronouns. Masculine, feminine, neutral and plural. Forget this made up crap. They only mean something to the person inventing them.
@okeydoke It isn't what they use. It is what I use. If someone looks female, she gets referred to as her, she etc. I have no idea what she calls herself, unless she hangs a label round her neck. Also, I do not propose remembering every individuals unique needs. Two simple tests suffice. Looks male, so him and his. Looks female, she and her.
Of course it is all made up, but why add extra pronouns on the whim of some individual that doesn't want to use what we do have.
Thank you for MHG!

I taught language for 15 years. Language goes by usage. Not by dictation by the academie francaise or the lgbt institute. If you can get people to use them, fine. That’s the game. So many people have less than zero interest in organizing or promoting. No. It’s all about dictating to you what you must not and must do. That’s a recipe for total linguistic disaster. Hahah why don’t you ban me for telling the truth?
Appalachian leftists banned me for just observing that Spanish would be a bear of a language to adopt new pronouns. Because pronouns are integrated in to every verb conjunction. Oh my god. To even SAY that it might take more than calling someone poopy head and accusing them of being afraid of sh*t to completely overhaul an entire linguistic paradigm that took thousands of years to evolve. That’s a penalty worthy of immediately death.
So good luck language changers. You are gonna need all the help you can get to get this implanted permanently and functionality change language usage.
Now. Go get mad AF. Jump up and down and start screaming
Great comment!
there's a "day" for every shit now. i don't respect that trend.
i also disagree with idiotic pronounds that don't have unified meanings and no differentiating power for a lack of a real world equivalent or even a symbolic correlation with some ideal type. it's like those people have never studied anything about Weber, Wittgenstein, Mead, Schütz, de Saussure or any name in linguistical sciences, yet they are trying to enforce a sort of orwellian newspeak on the English language. i don't think what they do is intentionally bad. but it is bad and destructive because it confuses the heck out of specially young people and makes them lose touch with reality. they're just too idiotic and ignorant to understand, cause they know nothing.
language is what helps our mind reconstruct the real world in a simplified way such that we can navigate that world that we find ourselfs in. by using inaccurate or vague words or words that don't have any real copnceptional separation between each other, we litterally reduce ourability to navigate the world and structure our thinking and our lifes.
Noticed you haven't changed your name to physics person. I'm all for keeping the traditional he/she ones because their so rooted in language removing them is difficult. It's only a tiny number who want to be called something different so I don't see the point of making sweeping changes.
We have too many international days of whatever as is. Guess how many are organic, relatable things we share and how many are the result of a few activists trying to impose an agenda on the rest of us?
An individual requesting an exception to the rule is reasonable. But trying to make an entire society conform to made up nonsense as a general rule is demented. Everyone is free to assume pronouns unless specifically asked to do otherwise and the more people come up with bullshit pronouns to stir up controversy the less seriously the actual people with gender disphoria will be taken. Not only are these political tendencies insane, they are also counterproductive.
Instead of normalizing a topic, it will make more people upset about it and resolutely refuse to participate.
I can't belive this is what the world has come to lmfao.
Its just more of The Intersectional/Identitarian Mob BS, I never have nor will I announce 'My Pronouns', those that have and do have too much time on their hands, and those that try to make me use the pronouns they espouse would be in for a rude awakening.
We left the wilderness, fought beast, rival tribes, and natural disasters. We built the wonders of the world, created vast examples of art admins literature. We warred and died by the millions. We flrw rockets into space, had a man on the moon, sent robots to Mars, discovered new planets, stars, and solar systems... and then we come to this. Yes we really are living in a clown world. A parody of another place we know nothing about.
I want a paper copy of all pronouns, then have a meeting for those who really give a a shit about it so I can feed it into a paper shredder in front of them saying "This is how the silent majority see this bullshit. Now get back to work."
Why give everyone a hard time? And also what's wrong with being called either "he" or "she"? Really even if anyone mistakes me as a girl from behind since i have long hair, I don't act like what a snowflake they are and simply correct them or i don't care at. Really there's nothing wrong with girls that I have to be offended if mistaken for one. Unless they mistake me as a retard, that's crossing the line.
Even giving this attention is more respect than it deserves. The best thing to do is to ignore this garbage and go about your day.
This is a damned stupid idea pushed by the left and, the harder they push, the more I will resist.
Young people really need to read 1984 to learn from where this pronoun bullshit comes.
Manipulation of language is a Communist weapon.
Them and they refer to plural not singular
Example where people like to use they where he or she should be used
They road there bike
She road her bike
2nd one is proper English first one is not
"They rode THEIR bike", you mean.
@Cherry234 there not using proper English
@Stoner710 That's true
Not needed I will use pronounce according to my beliefs, so there is basically only three, male/female and neutral/undefined.
I don't care. I speak English, but think other languages are great, too. It's fun to be linguistically educated.
All I can say is that I won't use gender neutral pronouns to please LGBTQ fanatics. I simply walk away from weirdos.
Well it is the best day to watch David Chapelle special than
Male/female. Man/woman. He/she. Him/her. His/ hers anything else is a mental disease or a sexual fetish.
I had no idea this existed. Why does it exist again? lol
What even are “zim, xe, ze, xim, zey”? I don’t have an overall opinion on this but these new pronouns are confusing to me
I love how the conservative bullshittists of this site get so mad at this kind of stuff. Like if you think it's useless or don't believe it in why do you think "I hate that" instead of "I don't care about it"? It's like an atheist going "Fuck religion" (and I know some do) instead of "Don't care about religion".
