So, Saeed, when we will go to gender indoctrination or gender misidentification or gender mental disease policing on AR???

Our lib friends here may want to be identified as "gender neutered" due to their hero Biden's latest effort to render men into women....

In our Personal Zone or whatever identifier we are using - may need to be more specific on if you squat to pee or stand up to pee.

Would hate to offend someone on AR or in the Political Forum....

I don't know which is more stupid. The trend the OP complains about or spending time bitching about it.

If we don’t hitch about it we will eventually cave to it. Where do you stand on the matter?

Truth be told, I don't even understand it because I pay zero attention to it. It seems like another one of those stupid issues that relates to .00001% of the population.

It’s compelled speech and you should be dam worried about it. Never before has the government told you what to say. And that’s exactly what they’re doing. No it’s not a big deal right now. But I suggest everyone read or re read 1984 and Animal Farm. Quite astonishing

I have no bloody time for this bullshit!

As far as I am concerned, it is the X and Y chromosomes.

Nothing else matters.

Had visitors over a while back.

They arrived, and asked if they could wait for THEM to come to go shoot.

We waited.

Then a WOMAN arrived.

We waited.

I was told THEY had arrived.

I looked at her and said "in this house we follow normal human behavior. You are a woman, and I am a man. You have any other ideas, keep them to yourself"

She did not utter a word.

Continued her silent until they left.

I got a call later from the friend who brought them here.

Apparently I was the MOST IGNORANT person she/they had ever met! clap

In his book, "Arabian Sands", Wilfred Thesiger tells of the Bedouin tribesmen, with whom he was travelling, upon witnessing an English soldier standing to urinate, asked him (Thesiger) what injury or deformity might prevent the soldier from squatting down to pee as they did.
Those Bedouin were in no way effeminate.

My dad spent a lot of time in several middle eastern countries. He liked and admired the Bedouin.
He gave me "Arabian Sands" and I really enjoy it. Times gone by. Regards, Bill.

The purpose of language is communication.

Using a plural form for an individual will lead to confusion.

That being said, this was someone who was coming into your house, apparently not at your specific invitation. How would you know if it was one “royal” personage (as royalty and certain positions do allow first person plural usage in official English) or if there were others still to come?

“They” were lucky they weren’t in a religious household across the gulf from you… that would not have ended well for “them.”

I don't know why we even bother to worry about the small percentage of people who don't know if they are a boy or a girl. They seem to like attention.
Ignore them and they will go away.

A non issue here in DLG, but I don't think you are right.

It seems like with Democrat administrations this stuff flourishes. Hillary Clinton had her "PC Speech". When we get a good conservative like Reagan or Eisenhower the nation unifies, when we get a Biden we fragment.

True, I think "W" and Trump fragmented the nation more than anyone else.
This stupid stuff needs to be squashed, locally, statewide and federally.

"They," "them," and "their" are proper when the person referred to is sexually ambiguous or where the reference "he or she," or "his or hers" is considered too clunky or unnatural.

"I can't tell if they are a woman or man."

"Everyone should keep their dog restrained."

"Each employee must clock in when they start work."

Those weren't the grammar school rules when I went to school, when "they" was reserved for the plural pronoun.

quote:
Singular they, along with its inflected or derivative forms, them, their, theirs and themselves (also themself, and theirself), is a gender-neutral third-person pronoun. It typically occurs with an indeterminate antecedent, in sentences such as:

"Somebody left their umbrella in the office. Could you please let them know where they can get it?"[1]
"My personal rule is to never trust anyone who says that they had a good time in high school."[2]
"The patient should be told at the outset how much they will be required to pay."[3]
"But a journalist should not be forced to reveal their sources."[3]

This use of singular they had emerged by the 14th century, about a century after the plural they.[4][5][2] It has been commonly employed in everyday English ever since and has gained currency in official contexts. Singular they has been criticised since the mid-18th century by prescriptive commentators who consider it an error.[6] Its continued use in modern standard English has become more common and formally accepted with the move toward gender-neutral language.[7][8] Some early-21st-century style guides described it as colloquial and less appropriate in formal writing.[9][10] However, by 2020, most style guides accepted the singular they as a personal pronoun.[11][12][13][14]

I prefer using ‘it’ in that situation. Wink
