We need a law that denotes 3 official pronouns to address a person (He, She, and it). Nobody is going to memorize more than this.

Why exactly does this movement think everyone needs to change for a small minority of people? The benchmark should be not discriminating, not catering to avoid any possible, minuscule perceived offense. The dumbest thing is that the people generally trying to get this stuff implemented are not even part of the grouping that this supposedly would offend. And nobody should even care about appeasing "nonbinary" people because it's just a delusion.

I couldn't tolerate it. I don't have the patience and if I forced myself to endure it, even ironically, I'd probably just snap one day. I'd rather not go to prison over something so stupid.

I think it's worth considering the inclusiveness of the general greeting. I usually say "Hi everyone," or "Hi all," at the beginning of a group email. Maybe it wouldn't bother anyone, but does it really hurt you so much to make your conversations a bit more naturally inclusive? Especially if you are in a field which has a particular default...

Its not that saying "hey guys" is any better than saying "Hi everyone" or "Hi all", but if you've been greeting people like that for your whole life its difficult to just change it at the snap of a finger. If you're writing an email that's a bit different, you at least have time to read what you're saying and edit it if necessary.

Reading these posts makes me sad. I feel like we arent even trying anymore.

It doesnt take that much to just change one word for a greeting does it? And if it is more inclusive to just one more person isnt that worth it?

Sure you dont have to do this nobody is making you. But why not do something that might help others feel more welcome?
