"As an ardent feminist, every day I try and do something to smash the patriarchy. So today I'm educating bigots on how to use more inclusive language. The exiting thing is there are actually many options for you to broaden your vocabulary and show you are a gender ally. Here's the list: zie instead of he or she zim instead of him or her zir instead of his or her zis instead of his or hers zieself instead of himself or herself sie hir hirs hirself ey em eir eirs eirself ve ver vis vers verself tey ter tem ters terself e em eir eirs emself So which do you like the most? I have a soft spot for zie, it just sounds more Nazi Germany to me. " Nah, call me a neanderthal but I'll stick with the usual, him/her, he/she.... you know how it goes. | |||

"Nope. Call yourself what you want, I have no problems with that, but you’re onto plums if you expect me to pander to your mental illness. " Today I identify as a zie, are you denying my right to self expression? Can you PM me your address so I can direct the police there. | |||

Now if everyone could kindly follow SoulfulKinky's wonderful example... | |||

"I'm all for gender neutral pronouns, however I think your list may be flawed. You're just changing the h of hers/ his to a different letter. Surely it's the ending that needs to change. I, you, they, them, theirs, don't these suffice? Or... just actually ask the individual their preference. " Not my list, a quick google search will show these in use at many places including Heartland trans wellness group, university of wosconsin, Kennesaw state university... | |||

Please refrain from using hate speech on this thread I'm sorry, in an effort to educate myself, can you please point out where is used "hate speech".? You refused to call me "zie" which is my identity today " I'm afraid you are mistaken. I said... " you know how it goes"... I referred to you as "you"... and in that moment, I gave you the option of deciding how you thought I was addressing you, meaning that in fact, if you decided that I was using "hate speech", then in fact, you were the one at fault. I'll accept your apology in the form of a non-gender haiku. | |||

That was the hate speech. | |||

"you mean last year with the teacher and the doctor this year who stated biology? personally i think the whole thing has gotten totally bonkers, we now live in a world where everyone wants to be called one thing or another and it offends them should anyone think differently to them. sorry but welcome to the world we live in, as far as im concerned, go for it, call yourself whatever you want, class yourself how you want. however simple facts, when a paramedic turns up to a life or death situation most people dont care about a label they wear, all they want is the emergency help provided. Would you get into a debate with a fireman as he carried you out of your burning property? or the police man whos just arrested someone for robbing you? If you are the sort of person who can and will argue at those moments, then sorry you are a part of the problem and not the solution. even now you are picking an argument over someone elses personal opinion which again is a hate crime... right or wrong we are all entitled to our own opinion. " Do you have a license for that opinion? | |||

"Internet slang, a troll (/tro?l, tr?l/) is a person who starts quarrels or upsets people on the Internet to distract and sow discord by posting inflammatory and digressive,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the intent of provoking readers into displaying emotional responses[2] and normalizing tangential discussion,[3] whether for the troll's amusement or a specific gain.

"You put a post up calling everyone else bigoted - hate speech from the get go. If someone has a different opinion to you its insighting hate speech or a thought crime... Rather than accepting others being who they are its hate crime. Then when you get a simple question you go on the offensive and attempt an insult rather that actually debating it. Yeah that pretty much shows a ton of arrogance, ignorance and basically this post has only been done purely to cause a fight. As said call yourself whatever you like, i dont care. But those women who orinally started the feminist movements were at least open minded enough to debate their points without pretending to be smarter than their peers. Sorry but people who run around screaming "hate speech im getting the police" need to grow up and actually talk it through like the adult they claim to be and not a 5yr old running back to their mum crying because someone wont play with them. The world is harsh, horrid and cruel and as for enlightening us "bigots" all i can see is you have openly picked fights with everyone who has disagreed with your opinion. " "The world is harsh, horrid and cruel" - So we have to make it worse? Where is your compassion? You sit there with your cisgendered, hetronormative, white privilege and lecture me on tolerance when I'm standing on a high horse, stand up for minorities. How dare you. | |||

A person can be both those things. " By definition of feminist Id beg to differ. To support womens rights would be gender specific which by definition goes against being gender neutral... Ergo making the feminist intolerant towards gender neutral, ergo making yourself a bigot based on being a feminist. So either this is a whole walking contradiction or maybe its the male half of the couple trying to be funny, which is really quite tragic and sad | |||

Gender Neutral language is about accommodating minorities, making the world a more inclusive, progressive, diverse and smug place. Women are not a minority. But your a feminst, opening post you called yourself an ardant feminist but said later today you like zie today. Feminst - womans right activist Zie - gender neutral. Which is it? A person can be both those things. By definition of feminist Id beg to differ. To support womens rights would be gender specific which by definition goes against being gender neutral... Ergo making the feminist intolerant towards gender neutral, ergo making yourself a bigot based on being a feminist. So either this is a whole walking contradiction or maybe its the male half of the couple trying to be funny, which is really quite tragic and sad " If I was gender neutral or a man I could still be a feminist. "Feminism definition is - the theory of the political, economic, and social equality of the sexes." | |||

"As an ardent feminist, every day I try and do something to smash the patriarchy. So today I'm educating bigots on how to use more inclusive language. The exiting thing is there are actually many options for you to broaden your vocabulary and show you are a gender ally. Here's the list: zie instead of he or she zim instead of him or her zir instead of his or her zis instead of his or hers zieself instead of himself or herself sie hir hirs hirself ey em eir eirs eirself ve ver vis vers verself tey ter tem ters terself e em eir eirs emself So which do you like the most? I have a soft spot for zie, it just sounds more Nazi Germany to me. So how do you gender neutralise the word feminism? " Easy for me I call it promoting equality xxx | |||

"Shit like this really doesn't help anyone. The chances of you ever running into someone other than trans is incredibly low. It's really not that hard to just address someone as they would like to be addressed. It requires minimal effort and basic human decency to do and has no baring on youre life. Most of you really just need to get over yourselves, talking as if this is going to cause the end of the world. Gender non conforming people make up an estimated 1% of the British population, whilst this sounds like a low percentage, it's a whole lot of people. Just move with the times and treat people with basic human decency, it's really not that hard" It may not help anyone , but it’s quite funny , and a reminder of what a complete and utter load of crap the whole gender non conforming movement is creating . | |||

" In equality exists in many areas I'm very much for inclusive fairness Im rather vocal with respect to unfairness I don't think it unreasonable to suggest the concept of positive discrimination and extreme counter measures examples can be , not are , can be counter productive with the aim being to have as many humans as'possible join the cause for fairness amongst all humans on all levels Fairness does not always mean equality , this is sometimes just not plausible or possible For example let blind people drive However the aim to treat all with respect , fairness and humanity is a goal I advocate and if I think , a vocal minority would undermine my ultimate goal , for example becoming militant over history not being herstory I'll suggest that's foolish x | |||

Just move with the times and treat people with basic human decency, it's really not that hard It may not help anyone , but it’s quite funny , and a reminder of what a complete and utter load of crap the whole gender non conforming movement is creating . Cool, can we do a joke funny sarcastic oh how amusing thread about BB’s dyslexia now and how it’s amusing when he posts a thread and makes spelling mistakes? Nope, probably because that would be in bad taste too. I might have missed something, but I don't see what BB's dyslexia has to do with this thread I’m simply explaining mocking people isn’t something I think is amusing. Who's being mocked? Gender non conforming people or the OP? Oh my fucking god it's the lady from ed sherrans bangs on about in his song. My jaw generally dropped when I see you're pics " She is gorgeous. | |||

No snark was involved, interesting that you’ve ascribed it, and an intent too.
