"Today is a day I'm so happy to share more of my life with you all," -
err: "Today is a day We are so happy to share more of our lives with you all," ??

"I'm doing this for those out there that haven't been able to share who they truly are with their loved ones," -
err: "We're doing this for those out there that haven't been able to share who they truly are with their loved ones," ??

If you are going to do this bow locks then at least learn the correct terms!

Untitled, Who's dressing it up like some kind of deep and sincere moral concern about society?

[aelmpvw]

i'm not sure whether Untitled means the person in the video or abers

[Untitled]

The people who complain about this.


Also it is not incorrect to use "they" as singular... e.g. when describing a document by an anonymous author it is perfectly normal to say "they wrote..."

I don't see what all the fuss is about.

Untitled, I don't see anyone who complains dressing it up like some kind of deep and sincere moral concern about society. As far as I can see they think it's bonkers.

And who cares if it is a bit bonkers? Who is harmed by it?

Oughta have checked the pronouns at the beginning of the post ay!

//And who cares if it is a bit bonkers? //

When I'm expected to support the lie, I care.

As for who is harmed by it, I also care about this:

Future generations are.... we are born with girl / boy genitalia (except fir the rare few that are born intersex)

Kids need to know that they are male / female and that a person is singular - one person can’t be plural.


Oh and my opinion has nothing to do with sexuality - I totally accept that many people feel attraction to same sex and some even feel born into wrong body ....

But even the wrong body is born with boy bits or girl bits....

Then if they choose gender reassignment they can calm themselves the opp gender

In vino veritas!

I don't see that as particularly harmful naomi...

This singer has changed their identity and informed their fans... which has been reported by the BBC... I don't think there is any use pouting about it. Some people are different and that is fine...

I sent a fan message to Demi saying “100101010101010”. She couldn’t read it.

[Mozz71]

It's possible I've not got the hang of it either judging from Tora's OP. Surely "I" is non-binary by default, as it isn't gender specific, so doesn't need to be changed to "they"?

[nescio]

McMouse clever :-)

Untitled, You don’t think a school allowing its female students to identify as male without their parents permission is harmful? What planet are you on?

[Untitled]

Earth, naomi... I'd say yours but I forget the indigenous name for Planet Outrage

[naomi24]

if a school allowed my children to do that I would be outraged. No doubt about it. Their decision would be short lived!

Why?
