I am liberal, and I generally agree with addressing people as they prefer to be addressed. But Spanish has gendered language (I only speak 3 languages, but it's true). This seems like something that was produced out of some sangria fueled faculty meeting at a small college.

Not all progressives agree with using the term BIPOC. I feel like if you mean a specific ethnic group, say that group. If you mean people of color in general say that. If you mean Viet and Mexican, say Viet and Mexican. And for those who dont know BIPOC means black, indigenous, people of color. I feel thats doing too much and is sort of a lazy way to try and gatekeep progressive causes by using lingo to sus out people ... Copied to Clipboard!

Most of the people I know who would qualify as "latinx" have openly expressed they HATE the term and consider it stupid.
If the very people the term is intended to describe say they do not like it, I'm not using it... --- The funny thing about telling others to take the high road is how often it's hypocritical advice. http://tryimg.com/8/2017/06/28/IdSqD.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

Latine is the best option. When I was a little tyke first learning Spanish as a second language (almost 20 years ago) I read a little general interest handout the teacher gave us about how more young Spanish-speakong people were using -e word-finally to be neutral. Not sure why that was overtaken by LatinX, but I guess it's similar to why 'womyn' was mocked but 'womxn' is trendy.

I assumed it was pronounced like "lah-teenks".
But, yeah, it is dumb. Like trying to impress gender neutrality into an innately gendered language. Might as well try to make "womyn" a legitimate thing. ... Copied to Clipboard!

And not all of us on the left are into stuff like this. I think It's safe to say most of us aren't.

I don't really care one way or another because as half latino, I understand that the term is too artificial and has no weight from a cultural standpoint BUT THAT BEING SAID if non-binary people want to identify as that term then I support them for that.
So far I haven't encountered anyone that uses the term either positively or negatively yet.

I've only ever heard Hispanic people say it, usually feminist and LGBTQ+ activists. I'm half Mexican and half equinsu ocha, so the various labels I've been given have left me with apathy for it altogether and I couldn't really be bothered either way with this one.

It's a word that's currently limited by class, race, and ideology. I don't know why people get so bent out of shape about it and feel the need to tell others it's stupid.
I've never used it myself, but the activist types that come up with new words with new connotations feel it's useful. I wonder how CE would have reacted to activists using the term black rather than negro or colored.
