Honestly to me I have always viewed it the same way I have viewed those people that really like Digimon. It is just such a meaningless thing that like .5% of people take very seriously, I find it so meaningless it is difficult for me to even imagine a world where I am giving anywhere close to a shit about what word people call me, or Digimon in general. But that's fine and all, I am happy you like Digimon, but I don't really want to learn about Digimon. And again sure, if you say call me "Guavomon" I will call you Guavomon, but you have to understand that when I am autopiloting sentences I've spent my entire life just autopiloting and calling everyone "Charizards", I am still, especially when referring to just multiple people around me and you happen to be in that group, am still probably just going to keep autopiloting to Charizard ya know. ...

cuttin_in_farm posted... I will have an issue with any word that is completely redundant, yes. Shall and will are generally interchangeable. But one has a more polite or proper connotation.So you agree that there are words that mean essentially the same thing on paper, but which is appropriate to use depends on the context of the situation? If so, then there is no difference. You're being needlessly pedantic and you're arbitrarily drawing the line at pronouns when it comes to redundant language --- A hunter is a hunter...even in a dream [She/they] ... Copied to Clipboard!

Some of these seem somewhat silly. And I will say, I do agree that I don't see the point in creating new words that don't add any new meaning. I listen to what people have to say, and if it makes sense, I rock with it. If it seems nonsensical, I don't. Also the example about names was a pretty poor example. --- Would you follow a blind man?

You just admitted words can fit different contexts despite having the same definition. That is the difference. If pronouns do that, I have no issue.

More like JerryHellNo mirite. Anyway, the point isn't whether you think these terms have meaning. The point is what meaning they have for the person who adopts them. If you ever meet someone with neopronouns, you can ask them what it means for them.

I think people are just longing for a disconnection from "men like sports and beer and this and that" and "women like fashion, makeup, this and that and this and that". Which is awesome. I think that's just what people are wanting to express but in a way that makes them feel more...unique (different genders or non binary) Before they die. --- https://media.giphy.com/media/l3vRn3I4UyDoKyWLC/giphy.gif ...

I've not read the topic so this may have been answered but I don't want to read 10 pages of the same boring anti-trans rhetoric we've seen time and time again. Are pronouns like the ones in the OP a personal preference or is there more to it than that? I have to admit I've not heard of most of them in the OP so I'm curious as to their origins as well. --- Come join us at the Sudoku + Other Pencil Puzzles Community Board. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/1572-sudoku-plus-other-pencil-puzzles ...

CyricZ posted... It is always a person's own choice as to what pronouns they prefer others use for them. Is there an expectation amongst the trans community and their allies that people should know the most widely used pro-nouns and keep up to date on any new ones or is respectfully using them when the person you are talking to informs you of their preferred pronouns enough? It seems awkward to ask someone what their preferred pronouns are but then how else are you gonna know what someone wants to be called. --- Come join us at the Sudoku + Other Pencil Puzzles Community Board. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/1572-sudoku-plus-other-pencil-puzzles ...

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] Yeah but that isn't really the argument. We're not talking about new words. If I referred to an avocado as a zabouca (which is what it's sometimes referred to in my motherland), that would be a new word for you to be exposed to. The situation here is individuals that look at the existing vocabulary and say, no that's not good enough I need a different word -- without being able to tell me a good reason -- or really any kind of reason whatsoever. I think that's different to a name because names are meant to be unique. --- Would you follow a blind man? I would if I was in the dark ... Copied to Clipboard!
