The word “Latinx” (pronounced “La-teen-ex”) has been used more and more lately. And, yet, while many people are using the term and identifying as Latinx, there are still others who may look at the word with skepticism and confusion.

Trying hard not to laugh, but I just can’t help myself. LOL!

[BenLurkin]

Yeah.

I’m going to invite my latinx amigx to my casx for chips and quesx seved by cervesx Going to spend all my dinerx

"Latinks"

Good. It should rhyme with "sphinx". :)

[Pearls Before Swine]

I thought I had the English and Spanish pronouns down. I guess the “ze’s” will be showing up in both languages. Maybe for Spanish they’ll be “xe’s” in keeping with this Latinx nomenclature.

[ßuddaßudd]

sounds like they are twinks to me . ..
pitiful

[catnipman]

Ya just gotta love how the fake stream media is now inventing fake words!

[csivils]

Any non Hispanic person who uses this word should immediately be called out as a racist for trying to impose their agenda on another culture. Then act sceptical as they try to excuse their actions.

A. A popular laxative south of the border.

B. Brand of sanitary tissue sold in central and south America.

C. Malcom's cousin from TX on his mother's side thrice removed.

And these moron's still don't understand why they lost.

[Eagles6]

This is getting funny.

[Arthur McGowan]

And the plural is Latinices.

[bert]

Non calor sed umor est qui nobis incommodat.

[meadsjn]

Languages change in order to accommodate the times in which it’s used,

That's funny. So far, no Spanish or Portuguese speaking nation has evolved to have a functioning economy or culture.

[CodeToad]

“Gender fluid”, also known as cu...never mind. Don’t wanna get a timeout.

[keving]

I use LATINI. Multiple people?

[JimRed]

“Latinx also makes room for people who are trans, queer, agender, non-binary, gender non-conforming or gender fluid.”

IOW, weirdos.

[Trillian]

I’ve never heard of this one before. I guess their life is meaningless if they can’t identify as something ridiculous.
Latinas are going to be pissed.

[FreedomPoster]

Bingo. +1

I can't help but wonder if being enslaved by muslims for centuries didn't engrain some of islams signature traits in them such as systematic corruption, deceitfulness and inhumane crassness.
