Mark 5:9 And he [Jesus] asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

I am your stereotypical, cisgender, middle-aged suburban dad.

stereotypical ???

I think he should pop open a dictionary to look up the definition of that word...

Most middle-aged suburban dads think wearing make makes you at least weird, probably a trannie or a faggot. (a bundle of sticks) !!!

How would that work in a police report searching for a robbery suspect?

Calling him “it” works just as well for me, and is grammatically better than using a plural word.

Insanity. No language can function with a separate pronoun for each person. Language functions in generalities, with one pronoun for men, one for women, and another for things.

It is impossible to have a system in which each person has a unique pronoun. No one can remember all the pronouns. The moment someone uses the “wrong” pronoun, the fascist police swoop down and arrest him.

“They” is not inclusive and flexible. They is for more than one person or thing.

I have a solution: each person already has a unique designator: his or her name. So, instead of referring to a person with a pronoun, we simply use his or her name. So you never need to remember if that one “uses” “zey,” “zot,” “zim,” “zer,” or whatever the hell else they invented.

Do you ever wonder how many hits on the NYT’s website are attributable to the FR? And I can imagine how they clap their hands and squeal with delight when they think they’re really connecting with the unwashed masses. Just thinkin’ out loud...

It won’t be very long before the LGBTQ crowd will demand that children be given names at birth that would work for either sex. Like Pat, Jan, Terry, Jean, Bobby, etc. So the child could make up his/her mind which “they” wanted to be without pressure of the inconvenient name. A boy named Sue would have a rough time of it.

Or maybe even give them 2 names at birth, one for each sex. And let them choose later. There’s no end to this madness.

He is NOT the stereotypical cisgendered male. Not even close.

I think the “person” claiming to be the author of the text, with all the personality attributes he claims to have, is a fiction, either created by the writer alone or via a group edit. I think they invented the person the voice in the article is supposed to be.

Him...her...he...she.That's as far as I'll go.

But if this goes on much longer I might begin to use "it" and "that".
