Educators in the Volunteer State are very concerned that students might be offended by the usage of traditional pronouns like she, he, him and hers, according to a document from the University of Tennessee – Knoxville’s Office of Diversity and Inclusion.
“With the new semester beginning and an influx of new students on campus, it is important to participate in making our campus welcoming and inclusive for all,” wrote Donna Braquet in a posting on the university’s website. “One way to do that is to use a student’s chosen name and their correct pronouns.”
Braquet, who is director of the university’s Pride Center, suggested using a variety of gender neutral pronouns instead of traditional pronouns.

What has happened to rocky top
"Ze @sshole" -- it has a nice ring to it, it sounds cosmopolitan (like French with the "ze" up front), and it's certainly an appropriate (if not descriptive) salutation to the folks who embrace "gender neutrality".
"Ze @sshole" is the ideal expression to use when speaking or referring to the highly-educated and (clearly) easily-offended people who took time out of their full lives to sensitize us normal people to the horror -- the unspeakable evil -- of "gender exclusivity" in language.
QED
One's correct pronoun is that which matches one's BIOLOGICAL SEX. Next question.
The lists of all registered Democrats, past the age of thirty.
They are either stupid, or evil. Consider:
The Leftist who shot the reporter and her cameraman, yesterday. He wore an Obama button on camera.
A girl has her college diploma on E-bay. She wants to sell her BA in Theater Arts for $50,000, the size of her student loan debt, because she can't find a job.
A dyke prof at Tennessee State wants to mandate that any pronoun that reveals gender be banned. He, she, his, her, would be replaced with 'ze' and 'zer'.
Stupid, or evil? This is only today's "Best Of". The world can't afford this much stupid. Besides, think of the traffic... No more Teslas, or Prius, (Plural? Like a herd of moose?).
They need to fire the clown.
He, She, or It. Choose one.
And masculine takes precedence over feminine in Spanish, so 100 women would be ellas, but add one man to that group and it switches to the the masculine plural ellos.
1) The TV shooter: evil.
2) Theatre Arts Girl: smart, actually ... and belatedly. Bad decision taking out a loan to get the TA degree, but at least she’s trying to recoup her losses in the free market.
3) Dyke prof: evil. Perhaps even more so than the TV shooter; in the long run, she’ll do more damage.
This is one where you just shake your head and just.... whew.
That much stupidity has to be painful. Its painful to watch.
oy vey!
My idea was to call Obama "It," because he could be "questioning," but too embarrassed to admit it. So it would be the inclusive thing to do.
This creates a dilemma. I don’t want to be a ze, but I don’t want to be a not-ze either...
FALSE DILEMMA ALERT!
I am a HE, the wife is a SHE, the condenser outside the window is an IT, and to quote a famous feminist...”I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this [school] administration, somehow you’re not patriotic, and we should stand up and say, “We are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any [school] administration!”
They must really be offended by Spanish. Every word is either male or female.
Sheeeeit. And I was thinking of moving to TN someday.
They had TRUE ROLE MODELS and REAL LIFE interactions where autonomy and independence could be instilled (not dependence which Prussian schools FORCE, along with mass CONFORMITY (group think)). True Role Models of human interaction of both male/female (with Love) where children could learn REALITY and Autonomy and self-sufficiency and how to “Love” (self-sacrifice).

Anyone can find out the true history of American compulsory government schooling if they want to. It's available to read on-line for free:
The Underground History of American Education
It's written by the 1991 NY State Teacher of the Year. He spent 10 years researching it.
Freakin’ MORONS! Go away and leave us alone!
No! You cannot zee zeem! I vill not show zeem!
Zis wikk not affect ze volunteers, because zey are building brick zy brick!
Well, to be consistent, ze has to change zir name from Donna,a namde which is generally considered gender specific to something neutral.
I think Number 41 would be nice, don’t zu.
Well smear me with honey and tie me to an ant heap! This here is a mighty fine heap ‘o’ fancy book learnin’ I reckon guess and calculate.
