Sakurai also recommended sharing your own pronouns first, which creates an invitation for others to do the same.

Asking a person directly about their pronouns is also an option, but be mindful of the context and environment that you're in. Is it in front of a large group of people where that person could feel singled out? Is the setting friendly to transgender and non-binary people? If you think the question could make someone uncomfortable, it might be worth having a more private conversation.

Some people might not be "out" as transgender or non-binary in certain settings and might therefore be reluctant to share. Others might be transitioning or coming to terms with their gender identity and the question could bring up painful feelings for them. Be sensitive and use your best judgment.

It might feel a little awkward at first, especially if you're not used to thinking about gender identity as distinct from a person's biological sex. Ultimately though, normalizing the practice of sharing or asking about pronouns helps build a more supportive and inclusive environment for intersex, transgender and non-binary people. It lets those folks know that you see them and respect who they are.

Very important article on CNN.

Can you imagine walking up to a group of people and introducing yourself, then stating, "... and my pronouns are he/him." How fucking awkward and unnatural. Do you libs really do this when you get together?

TEAM FEELINGS SO VERY SENSITIVE

Even a lot of the lefty trans people are getting fed up with this mega-woke guilty limousine liberal bullshit.

Natalie Wynn aka "Contrapoints", a left-wing trans YouTuber, wrote a blog last year talking about how it's actually easier to go to bars in the deep south, as people just say "her" and "ma'am" without obsessing over pronouns.

This has happened to me before in hyper woke spaces. Like it's me and a bunch of cis women and we all have to go in a circle saying she-her because I'm there.

There's this paradox where I can go to a sports bar in North Carolina and be miss-ma'amed all night, no question. But in self-consciously trans-inclusive spaces, I have to explain my pronouns and watch woke people awkwardly correct themselves every time they say ‘you guys.’

I was walking the hounds in the parks and there was this chick doing a survey on peeps in the park. While my doggy was dropping a deuce I overheard 2 questions. The first was are you using the parks more, less, or the same since covid. As the pup squeezed out the last nugget I overheard this dummy ask a young couple which gender they identify with. Oh shit I had to chime in and let bitch know he is male and she is female you liberal sick shit and gtf out of here. People come to get away from you sick weirdos.

The Team Feelings PFA Brain Trust is going to insist that this is fringe stuff which doesn't define their party...

... and yet it's being mainstreamed on CNN and in all of their other media spaces.



BUT ITS SUPER FRINGE AND NOT THE NORM OF DEMS, Y'ALL

Charming Christian behavior that Jesus would be happy with for sure. Love thy neighbor and all.

This probably didnt happen, but love how Team Retard never misses a chance to demonstrate their stability to the world.

So, in Jan 2020 I went to an orientation for the University my daughter was transferring to. The parents were put in a separate room and several upper class students spoke about Campus Life and activities etc. Each of the 10 kids that spoke introduced themselves by saying their names and their preferred pronouns. I was confused, as I had never been exposed to this Liberal Gringo B.S. The parent seated next to me, a truck driver from Connecticut, jokingly asked me, "So, what's your Preferred Pronouns?" I told him ..."Um, I don't know...I guess let's go with 'Dude', "Dude's'.."

All kidding aside, WTF is wrong with you Gringos? There are only 2 sexes (Male and Female). There are only 2 sexual orientations: You either a) Suck Dick or b) do NOT Suck Dick. Everything else is just bullshit.

This Bullshit doesn't exist in Mexico or South America. Also, no Latin person uses the term "LatinX". The only one's that use that term are Liberal Gringos. Carry On!

I am sure this pronoun stuff will be the norm in 50 years when all of us geezers are dead.

I am too old to adapt to it...been using the standard pronouns too long to change.

I am so old that cis gendered = normal.

wow the empathy of the Republican party

Yeah no. The team sensitive is clearly the religious right wingers and trump cultists who get their panties in a bunch anytime someone has the audacity to act differently in our supposedly free country. The absolute horror of they/them....the horror!!!!

bro, if you don’t like it then go back to where you came from

I thought this was America where people can do and be whatever they want so long as they don't hurt anybody else. But lookie lookie at the "conservative" party that wraps its ass around the flag every chance it gets and constantly bitches about "muh freedoms" being complete assholes to anyone who doesn't embrace their values. Y'all are so worked up about something that has no impact on your lives. Just live and let be in the land of the free.

You really showed that girl making $12/hr to do a survey commissioned by the parks department what a bad old bitch you are! Very Christlike. Well done Aunt Lydia.

Very emotional, defensive and effeminate reactions from the usual Gang of Pussies! Druff called it, great stuff!

Not trolling there, dwai. I actually believe it. Let your freak flag fly and have all the fun you want as long as you're not hurting anyone.

This is like a tweet from Trump if he was a self loathing closeted homosexual.

Remind me how this is different from a woman having Miss, Mrs, Ms. before her name

So you interrupted a conversation that didn't involve you and had nothing to do with you so you could tell one of the pahticipants you disapprove of what they are saying.

Kind of like thinking Trump won and cancelling anyone who doesn't worship Trump "isn't mainstream Republican" even though it's a large majority?

I've only seen a few people announce their pronouns, and every time it has been one of the traditional ones him or her, never others. Fucking lame.

I interviewed a job applicant on video and her screen name included pronouns. I didn't hire her. That wasn't the reason I didn't hire her, but I have to admit it crossed my mind that it would probably be annoying to work with her.

Ok then.

Are you surprised?

Amazing I got asked the same thing during the census, under a Republican President Trump. Being a normal functioning adult, I didn’t take it out on the person asking the question as I know they were simply asking a question on a form to make a living and didn’t write the fucking questions themselves because I’m not retarded. But those liberal socialists globalists running deep red Ohio always want to know about your park usage before they start trying to give you a copy of Marx’s Das Kapital.

Have to agree with walt on this, hiring a woke pronoun spewing puke would almost certainly become problematic at some point and be some kind of test site for flexing there woke muscles and seeing who they can cancel. I guess at some point they will hide there agenda till they pass the probation period. Personally i would never hire some one that needed to be validated by being called his, him, zer... or calling someone out for saying some naughty word. would disrupt my whole business. eventho i do have a relatively new fellow very smart and good at his job around 28yrs and probably a bit woke but he seems to keep it mostly to him self he likes his cheque's.

goddamn you can be a real faggot sometimes, like just respect people and you would literally have no problems. but that's too easy I guess

so i was picking up pizza the other day and a woman/girl with semi pink hair was walking in the opposite direction carrying takeout dropped a 20. i noticed this and i said to myself "what should i say to her to get her attention"? we're being trained to not assume she's female so i just kept quiet because the fear of verbal abuse/backlash of these stupid pronouns and made up identity.


okay,..it didn't exactly go down like that. she didn't have a pink stripe in her hair and dropped a scarf or some sort. i yelled "miss" you dropped something. and she turned around picked it up and thanked me.

although if i was in any big usa city i wouldn't have said shit

literally the worst story of all time

i was canned last week and ran into a drag queen party and screwed up many times while buying them shots, i just said "im drunk"

I think you're missing the point here.

This isn't about some 19-year-old attention whore choosing the pronouns bun/bun/bun/bunself because they want to win cool and unique points with their woke peers. I think it's idiotic, but I don't see a reason to interfere with this, nor do most conservatives. People can refer to themselves how they want.

If you want to declare yourself a dog, walk on your hands and knees, and bark all day, again that's your choice.

This is about the expectation that others buy into the idiocy, and the shaming of those who refuse to go along with it. So if you're in public and someone informs you that their pronouns are "bun" and "bunself" (a real thing, btw), you are expected to refer to them that way, or you're supposedly an asshole.

The CNN article I posted is mainstreaming this idea. It's instructing everyone to go along with this nonsense, and how to deal with apologizing when you "mess up" and call a woman "she" instead of "ze", "bun", "yo", "they", or something else equally retarded.

Your line is typical of today's left, though. First your side pushes some insane idea and demand everyone go along with it. Then when any conservatives point out how ridiculous the whole thing is, we are accused of "getting worked up over something minor".



How about admitting that your party is insane with all of this shit, and that the lack of people like you calling it out is the reason we're now seeing articles on CNN instructing us how to "get people's pronouns right".

An actual left wing trans woman wrote a blog (rightfully) bitching about how stupid this whole thing is. I quoted one paragraph from it, and your takeaway was that "just respect people" is the answer?

LOL at the mental gymnastics that Team Feelings goes through to avoid that most of their party is insane nowadays.
