Yes, there is a day for everything, and I hate it. With a passion. With a burning hot solar flare of a passion.
I was happily unaware that today was International Pronoun Day until Twitter destroyed my blissful ignorance by informing me, via this Tweet:

Lord as a courtesy pronoun works for me. What the hell is Fae/Faer?

My gender is ‘MAGA’. My pronoun is ‘Fvck Biden’. You are compelled to use both in reference to me.

Does anyone know what other countries are doing in this area?
I know that French, like many languages, has gendered nouns for everything. And “child” is considered a male noun. Therefore, there are no female children in France. That’s just the way it is.
I can’t imagine a country like that trying to adjust their language to deal with this transgender BS.

The weirdest case is German where the word for girl “Mädchen” is neuter, but woman “Frau” is feminine.

I only use one pronoun, “Waldo”. And I demand that it always be used when referring to me. Otherwise, it’s lawsuit time.
So my boss cannot say, “Give it to him.”
Instead, my boss must say, “Give it to Waldo.”
Hilarity ensues when a new employee tries to figure out who the heck is Waldo. And of course my real name isn’t Waldo.

Interestingly enough, the Hungarian language is gender-neutral. So, for example, the same Hungarian word is used for both “he” and “she”. This forces the speaker to be more descriptive to avoid confusion.

Today's celebration will make up for missing Toenail Fungus Day last June 4th.
Just don't ask what Toronto mayor proclaimed May 28 as.

Pronouns should be illegal. Pronouns are hate speech. /leftthink

I feel a sudden overwhelming urge to paraphrase the exchange with Alec Baldwin in Glengarry Glen Ross:
"What are your pronouns?"
"FU! Those are my pronouns"

In German the word Weib (wife) is also neuter, as is Fra+ulein (Miss). All diminutives are neuter (so if you can't remember a noun's gender, just take on -lein to the word).

LOL, that brought back memories!

Nature has made me he/him/his and those are the pronouns that should be used in referring to me. When someone is talking to me, I demand thee/thou/thy/thine and the verbs had better be correct.
