Look at this schit: This is a woman who claims she is two genders and look how wikipedia describes her, not as “she” but as “their”. The world has gone insane...

Google has a diversity problem ... they are locked into using the English gender selected when translating English into languages where gender is integral to its construct ...

Makes sense, otherwise it causes confusion. I’m surprised they’re not looking to eliminate gender-biased words from all languages on earth. English seems to be the most gender neutral language of all. You only need one word for lifeguard! Contrast the German Schwimmeister and Schwimmeisterin (David Hasselhof-type lifeguard and Pamela Anderson-type lifeguard, respectively).

Oh, “them” and “they” instead of “he” and “she”?

So Google wants to stamp out gender bias? They want to reformat all the world’s languages to make liberals happy?

Do these people have too much time on their hands?

Gonna be kind of hard to do in languages like French where everything has a gender.

often choosing the masculine word for terms like “doctor,” and the feminine word for “nurse,” for example.
“Now you’ll get both a feminine and masculine translation for a single word — like ‘surgeon’

So Google is now lying to its users? What is the person being referred to is a nurse and not a Doctor or is a Doctor and not a Surgeon? Does this mean that Google is in the business of lying?
