  Trans women too

    Yeah, but you can also just say men, that’s fine. If we go that route we should add asterisks on every word with explanations and definitions and whatnot.

      Or you can just quit bitching when people choose inclusive language. That’s fine.

        I’m trying to make the poing that changing language to be inclusive doesn’t work. It’s the same as the LGBT group, that now is LGBTQIRBFHAHFH or something? I lost count. Same with the damn rainbow flag that now looks more like a million pixels project than a flag.

        Every day there is somebody out there that feels special and now needs to be included too and it hasn’t stopped and it won’t stop.

        Somebody is trans and wanted to be a man and transitioned? How about we just call them what they wanted to be in the first place? “Men”. Simple.

        This entire “people with penises” languages is just made up solutions for made up problems that doesn’t actually solve or improve anything

  I wouldn’t be surprised if the ratio of trans women to men in the audience of this product was a lot higher than in the general population.

    If you transitioned to become a man, wouldn’t you want to be called just that, “man”?

    Either way, this “people with penises” is the type of waking in eggshells language that makes everyone annoyed just to satisfy a few perpetually slighted. It’s perfectly fine to say “men”, everyone knows what we mean, nobody is excluding anyone and you can’t talk in ways that includes everyone because anytime you try, you’ll just end up with yet someone else who feels insulted because you didn’t include his particular interpretation of how he/she/xe/sho/is/zil/etc feels…

    At one point we just need to remember nthst people typically aren’t trying to insult anyone in normal speech and er shouldn’t require and force people to our special and particular speech only or feel insulted.

      You’re dedicating a lot of time and effort getting pissed off at something that doesn’t matter to you at all and I assure you that you might think you’re saying what everyone else is thinking but actually you’re just off in a corner by yourself fuming.

      Get help.

  Here’s that problem you were asking for. Hope you love it!

    I don’t get it?

      People who buy chastity cages presumably want someone to lick them in it and refuse to let them out … like the hacker was doing to them.

  Ah yeah see you knew what they meant. What’s the issue?

  • phoenixz@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    The overly PC language that is just annoying most people just so you a can pretend to include people when in reality you don’t.

    Just talk plain English. It doesn’t insult or exclude anybody to say “men” or “women”

    • some_guy@kbin.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      What’s not plain English about “people with a penis”?

      Is the word “people” too difficult for you?

      source

      • phoenixz@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        Or you can stop playing dumb, of course.

        Nobody talks like this but a very small and very select little group of people that can’t stop congratulating eachother for being so politically correct.

      Are you against free speech or smth?

      source

      • phoenixz@lemmy.ca ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

        No.

        I’m against this though because people talking like this usually push others to do the same, saying they’re oppressive if they don’t. This has led to situations like in government buildings where announcements normally start with “ladies and gentlemen, please…” now no longer can do that “because that is oppressive, abusive and exclusive”. Never mind that comedy has but completed disappeared because people have gotten scared to make a joke. Can’t risk someone feeling insulted anymore!

        Now I’m starting to see more and more “people with penises” and it’s tiring.

        Saying the word “man” or “woman” is fine. Even for those in the trans community because they actually wanted to be the other sex, right? Plus, we all know what is meant, nobody is trying to exclude anyone, so how about we stop trying to be so politically correct?

        The rant is against people who feel slighted when they see normal language being used. If that insults you, too bad.
