| Topic | Do you believe in the "they" gender pronoun |
| Harpie 05/05/20 6:59:26 PM #27: | PsychicHippo posted... As a gay man it may surprise some to learn I take some issue with this. On one hand I hold the sentiment that we are all universal, multidimensional beings who arent meant to be reduced to labels and confined in boxes. From a philosophical standpoint this make sense to me. But with that said, from a practical standpoint, by asserting that you are sometimes a he, sometimes a she, or neither, or both, and identifying yourself with the pronoun they and demanding others do the same, still suggests an air of ego. Obviously its OK to be different, but must we constantly scream to the world, Look at me and how different I am? Like I said earlier, Im gay, but frankly without some of what we think of as heteronormative guidelines or societal boundaries in place things can get pretty confusing, if not outright ridiculous once you start thinking you're special.lol what They don't think they're special they just don't want to be called he/she. Not everyone is comfortable with gender labels. Also so it's okay for you to be gay, but someone else can't be non binary? --- no ... Copied to Clipboard! |
