    sod pronouns. my adjectives are handsom, intelligent and godlike in bed. you have to use those when discussing me.

  • nb-2

    After some years of reflecting on gender, I don’t really have preferred pronouns. I identify as cisgender, I’m a basic white male. Lots of gay friends, some bi and one trans friend. I’m not really bi but I wouldn’t be offended or put off by a man hitting on me. I’m not not bi, if you know what I mean.

    Anyway, if someone asks my preferred pronoun, I always say he/him but it’s not actually my preference. I have no preference. I could not care less. Call me by whatever. But my point is this: if someone asked me (at work) to share my preferred pronouns, it is “PC” of me to just say “he/him”. It’s not really true, but if I say “I have no preference” I honestly wonder how that would be received.

    Food for thought.

    • Oops, first sentence should have said “reflecting on identity”nb
    • Saying that would cause unnecessary awkwardness. If you truly don’t care just say he him because that’s the default.monospaced
    • That’s what I do. But it’s not true about menb
    • having no preference is a pronoun. they/themhotroddy
    • It is? Is that what they them is supposed to be used fOr?nb
    • Shit,that makes sense. Gonna ask my closest they/them friend next time we have beersnb
    • You don’t think he him is you, even though you identify as a male?monospaced
    • That’s not what I said. I said I don’t have preferred pronouns. One thing isn’t the othernb
    • I was kidding. You're binary. They're not.hotroddy
    • This is basically a long winded way of nb telling us he's bicurious. Lolcherub
    • Huh? All I’m saying is I don’t have preference to any particular pronounnb
    • Then if you don’t care, stick with what you are. A him. Doesn’t seem like an issuemonospaced
    • sorry but you need to go in a category. thats how our monkey brains work.inteliboy
    • nb. i get you.pango
    • each to their own but if gender is a choice then i choose not to participate and my "preference" defaults to what my biological sex is.trooperbill

    Aperture 2025 - Oscars' Quota System

    "If a particular movie does not have enough people of color or disabled people or gays or lesbians working on the set—and what is “enough” will be determined by a knotty tangle of byzantine formularies—then that movie will no longer be eligible for an Oscar."

    There is a number of stories in America where professors who pretended to be black or latino, while actually being Jewish or Anglo-Saxon, have been fired/canceled/deplatformed, because it's cultural appropriation of someone else's identity. Men who do the same by appropriating female identity (trans), are not canceled. What is the difference?

    Richard Dawkins loses ‘humanist of the year’ title for asking this question on twitter
    https://twitter.com/RichardDawki…
    https://www.theguardian.com/book…

    Generally people get fired immediately for asking such questions. Don't ask questions which are forbidden.

    • yawn. fuck I hate twitter.inteliboy
    • How do people still not understand how one thing is a choice and another isn’t!?monospaced
    • Female identification isn’t a culture being appropriated. It’s a sexuality being expressed. It’s innate. It’s part of who they are down to biology.monospaced
    • Pretending to be what you are not for personal gain is totally different. You’d have to be a special kind of ignorant fuck to compare them as equal.monospaced
    • +1 monooey_oey
    • and dawkins didn't even make that assumption or group [fired/ canceled/ deplatformed]. again, the outrage missing the point as much as the SJWskingsteven
    • Normally you would assume the opposite: gender is in your chromosomes (does not change) and culture is something you acquire.drgs
    • The current interpretation is turned upside down: culture is something you inherit through race, and gender is a social construct.drgs
    • but that doesn't matter because you know race and gender are both social constructs right? i don't know why you let this stuff get to you, it's just activismkingsteven
    • The trans/gender discussion is for entertainment. The only thing which gets to me is the censorship, canceling, deplatforming etcdrgs
    • The principle which gives me the right to speak freely is the same principle which gives freedom of speech to people with opposite views.drgs
    • If I allow the idea that my opponent can be cancelled, I allow the idea that my own freedom of speech is not guaranteed.drgs
    • There are tons of people who do it for attention or to boost their subscribers/follower... on social media and thus for monetary gain_niko
    • So not much different than people pretending to be another race for gainful employment or for opportunities that weren’t available to them before_niko

    • you wouldn't give a shit if it was a biological female competing in mens sports nikokingsteven
    • You can say that trans-movement is an extension of male dominance. It's not enough that men and women compete separately because men are so much betterdrgs
    • But men will also dominate women's sports. Of course biological women cannot return like for like.drgs
    • I don't give a shit about males competing either kingsteven, I just love the absurdity of it all. But I would draw the line if males were allowed to fight_niko
