Current Affairs Gender Nonsence

[NeilMorepies]

A not entirely serious thread about random gender-based nonsense and assorted pronounary.

Have you ever been mis-gendered?
Do you advertise your pronouns? Or are you over 40?

Someone at work put her shortened name of 'Kaz' in the area people put their pronouns on Teams

I suppose with an ambidextrous name like that, pronouns would solve more problems than they create.

Then again, what problems could they possibly create? It’s just manners to ensure people don’t embarrass themselves by making an unfortunate mistake.

A crushing Everton defeat and this thread might just catch some freshly signed up 50+ year old super bloo. It’s a risk but a risk worth taking.

Predicting a landslide victory for Not Arsed.

But you know they actually are.

Do we know which current Everton players have “non-standard” pronouns?

I have no issue with people swapping sides - it hurts nobody - so long as they for-go sporting competition. That's unfair.

However, I won't be told how to use my language. If you look like he, I'll call you a he. If you look like a she I'll call you she*. If you look androgynous think up a NEW word... like heesh and I'll use that. A single person will never be called "they" by me because that is an offense to grammar.

*Sam stupid Smith with a beard will be called he. At least make an effort if you want to bully, coerce and control how others use established language you utter blert.

Sorry I’m over 50 so need a little guidance on the nuanced differences between a misgendered person born with a winkie who dresses as a lady, and a serial danger who dresses as a lady to gain access to ladies lavatories and use’s mirrors or camera to peek under the wall into trap 1 or 3.
Which would be a he, which would be a she or are they both they?
In the interests of non binary / gender ambiguous fairness, same applies (in reverse) to gender misaligned men with a clunge.

But would you feel the same if you were ‘Admiral Akbar’d’ by a pre / post op birth assigned male in a stunning frock?

Don't let them bother you.
You can address people without gender assumptions.
