and here I thought it was a parody…

I’m just saying you’re making a big deal out of nothing. Have a good night now.

again, gender-neutral wording like they/them don’t say anything about gender or her own identity. ‘They’ does not refer to a third gender. I’m not demanding anything from her. You’re the one who brought up using the correct pronouns. So I expect you to be familiar with English grammar.

I think your language-policing is ridiculous. You can’t expect someone unfamiliar with a situation to be up-to-date with how to affirm someone’s gender correctly. Gender-neutral language functions as a safe fall-back in such situations. You can rightfully expect people to not misgender people. You cannot be rightfully offended at people using gender-neutral language. The only person I’m making demands of currently is you, because you’re making this discussion unnecessarily hostile.

Yea, they seem to have a pretty short fuse…

Also, how do you even know her preferred pronouns in English? Did you ask her?

yea, nah.

Edit: Using a word is not the same as refusing to use another word in its place.

I’m sorry but no. Using gender-neutral language does not describe gender; using ‘they’ isn’t to misgender, it just leaves the gender unspecified.

You can correctly use ‘they’ for anyone. If they’d said ‘he’, now that would’ve been different…

(Edit: typo)

yep.
