BUT I AM A UNICORN! xD |
I thought Dae was a seacow o.o
If gender differences get too complicated I'm going to start saying "it" when I refer to everyone... =.= |
... I AM A SEACOW UNICORN OF THE SKY
Agree in the gender stance. I can't keep up with all the proper terms for people. Or maybe I'll just say "Hey you/person!" |
Don't know someone's gender.
Avoid pronouns at all costs. |
Careful Dae... I actually respond to "Hey you" [lol]
Unfortunately amane there will be people who get offended by "They/Them"... and at that point I don't know what I would use. |
Psst… "they" is a pronoun. [ninja]
|
I just don't understand the whole obsession with "I'll get offended if you call me the gender I am not". People call me He, She, I couldn't care less.
|
I don't like when people are wrong about me, so I'd have to get right on fixing that if someone thought I was a boy.
|
Well sure, but you correct them, they know, and nobody gets upset. But some people get upset the first time.
|
And dat be cray.
|
The war on political correctness is one we will never win. Because everything keeps changing.
|
Everything always offends everyone. We could all sit still and never speak again and offend people with our breathing patterns.
|
So true... [lol]
|
There are some people who make me wonder how they survived longer than a day on the Internet.
|
Yeah... and there's people that make you wonder how they survive in the real world too.
People are incredibly resilient, especially when fueled by stupidity. (Hence that drunken durability I guess) |
My mom had that issue with a customer. She accidentally said "he" instead of "she" (transgender, dressed and associates as female but born as male). Now, my mom is not one to judge and it was an accident but this customer (a regular) still holds it against her. This happened almost 2 years ago.
|
IT'S A DAE!
Come on. In a world like this, it's bound to happen until we can get enough people educated and open to the idea. |
2 years? Only 2 species I know of that hold grudges that long... people, and cats (We had a cat hold a 14 year grudge).
There's a lady I know who when she talks to parents about their kids she didn't know what to call them, she had to say She in the class but He to the parents. Luckily I told her about the gift of vagueness :D |
I will hold onto a grudge for dear life if I want you to suffer. (๏‿๏✿)
|
That's why I live by a very simple yet effective motto. "Don't piss anyone off".
|
Especially not the nice ones.
|
Mind you, this person does still have some male characteristics (Adam's apple) but my mom doesn't get gender pronouns right 90% of the time. If I got upset every time I was referred to as a he or my brothers' names, I wouldn't be talking to her.
But if you're truly nice, you wouldn't hold a grduge for long. |
It's hard to make the nice ones mad, but when they are mad—
|
Especially the nice ones. They deserve to be happy ^^
Hard to make mad, but if you make them mad, run like hell. So true Dae... I've been called the family dog on the way down the list [lol] |
If you haven't been called the pet's name, you must be a saint child, lol
