South of the Mason-Dixon line, the appropriate term would be Y'all and collectively for the group it is All Y'all.

Just call them all “turds” ... non-racist, non-political, non-misogynistic, non-elitist, etc.

How about “select primates of no specific gender, sex, or orientation?”

Born in Bayonne, no less.
Frank lives in Newton, but he represented both there and Brookline.

Between him, his Stalinist priest predecessor and the Kennedy Conan O’Brien lookalike, they’re really been blessed with great representation.

I love Brookline-—never lived there but always very close-—— a nice place.

I’m surprised they haven’t already gone “gender neutral”.
I hope they go the asinine fem/cuck route and change it to “Selectwomen” though. It would be highly amusing and alienate normal people. Dance for us clowns, dance!!!!
In other news, Chazz Baker has a primary opponent in Barnstable County Commissioner Ronald Beaty Jr, a Trump supporter.
Beaty served prison time for threatening George HW Bush so that’s probably a no go. He was somehow elected county commissioner last year but was badly defeated in a State Senate race in 2014.
