Re: Normalize pronouns: explaining personal pronouns with a CS analogy
#2Using people's chosen pronouns gives legitimacy to the harmful and offensive ideas that one can choose their gender or that men should be let into women's spaces and be able to cheat by entering women's sports. It reduces womanhood to an idea in a man's head rather than a biological reality. It denies science and villianizes those who acknowledge it.
Normalize refusing to participate in pronoun rituals.

My identity is no one else's business. Answering questions about pronouns is completely irrelevant to whether fringe identities are accepted. In my view, ironically, by demanding I identify myself, it is removing the privacy of my identity and bringing it to the forefront of the conversation, the opposite of acceptance and assimilation.

I very much agree, we should normalize the use of sex-based pronouns and the so-called 'misgendering' that may arise from doing so, even if it upsets some people.
Fighting back against the big lie of gender identity ideology starts with not mangling one's own language to appease those who are fervent believers.
