As a matter of diversity, equity and inclusion I can't celebrate this day until nouns and verbs get special days as well.

It's stupid, I'll call you by your sex, not some made up word you came up with because you don't feel "special"
One of these days I'm going to make my pronouns Heil/Hitler and we'll really see how committed they are to this pronouns bullshit.
Negative like any "Day something etc" i don't agree with that day's need to stand for anything or weeks or months.
When you destroy language, there is no communication.
How is making new words destroying language? Language changes all the time. It’s organic.
What is like World Mental Health Day or the Special Olympics?
World Mental Health Day was October 10th. So I guess those that celebrate Pronouns Day have more severe cases and needed longer term therapy...
Neutral, I generally respect the male and female pronouns and also “they” pronouns but all this zi and zer is kinda ridiculous
Ridiculous idiocy designed to appease the mentally ill, and stupid among us.
How "international" is it? I'd be willing to bet that it's only the English-speaking world that is "celebrating" this abhorrent abomination.
I’m in Colombia. It’s not even considered here. Not even a forethought or an afterthought. Even by the LGBT community who I have several good friends in. It’s looked on as another bizarre yankee weirdness
@Wester1967 It's good to know there is at least one place on Earth where the people are still relatively sane. Maybe I should learn Spanish.
The Taliban uses the pronouns “was/were” for trans people.
that's savage
I'm pretty sure the Taliban just executes trans people.
@okeydoke that's what he meant by the using past tense
@GoldenCage That’s pretty horrific.
didn't know, and honestly it doesn't matter to me. The only thing I dislike is the fact people are trying to change words like breastfeeding, mother, father, etc.
Yes, "chest-feeding" and "birthing-parent". How very Orwellian. Double-plus-bad.
That just bullshit, there are 3 pronouns, 2 singular and 1 plural, and that's it. The rest is just trend and mental illness.
This stuff is exciting for some but leave me utterly disinterested.
There are two genders.
Male and female.
And yes!!!
A person is born either male or female.
Gender IS biological!!!
@billyballs
her·maph·ro·dite
/hərˈmafrədīt/
a person or animal having both male and female sex organs or other sexual characteristics, either abnormally or (in the case of some organisms) as the natural condition.
Also, sex is biological, gender is a social construct. *shrug*
@ucraycray Hermaphrodite Syndrome is an anomaly in the human specie.
Meaning it is an abnormality.
So what is the point of post?
And yet it still happens and needs to be accounted for. You don't just get to declare it is only one or the other and then dismiss something that happens in roughly 1.7% of births.
@Ez-Bri-Z
Which is a LOT of people. Intersex is a very real thing, whether people want to admit it of not.
@okeydoke Absolutely, but the idea of it ruins the narrative of hateful individuals who want to hate on others who cling to it in these kinds of debates, mostly just so they can justify their phobic ways
@Ez-Bri-Z Unfortunately GaG is bizarrely conservative and close minded. The amount of intolerant bigots is disheartening.
It's more important than Halloween and Christmas combined
What is it about, by the way?
seeing people so mad about something as mundane as pronouns is very entertaining.
Ikr lol
Kinda understandable because it is being forced down on people. No one appreciates that.
I just call everyone loser so they can enjoy knowing how much the same they all are in my sight.
By God ! THAT is a Grand idea ! You good Sir win the interweb for the day.
Negative. Causes too much extra hate that’s not needed.
Not going to change how I pronounce things if they have an issue with it than maybe they should grow some balls and toughen up and stop being such a snowflake
neutral pronouns was the dumbest thing these ideologies have created in recent times
