‘Pronouns matter!': This School Is Handing Out Pins With Preferred Personal Pronouns
The Daily Caller News Foundation ^ | December 29, 2016 | Amber Randall

Posted on 12/29/2016 1:43:18 PM PST by kevcol

The pins read “My pronouns are” followed by either “he, him, his,” “she, her, hers” or “they, them, theirs.”

A sign at the library declares that mis-gendering a person can have dangerous consequences and can “invalidate someone’s identity.”

“Because gender is, itself, fluid and up to the individual,” the sign reads. “Each person has the right to identify their own pronouns, and we encourage you to ask before assuming someone’s gender. Pronouns matter!”

we get to chose our own pronouns?

That’s great, I choose the same as another clever guy.

I chose ‘You Majesty’

Everyone who addresses me, including the teachers, would have to begin with “You Majesty Balding Eagle, ................

Life would be pleasant, and I would turn in anyone who said it with a scowl.

Mine are:

Pu$$y Lover (he) and Pu$$y Lover's (his). Two can play this game. And I will call them Anus Lover and Lover's.

The first term on each button is the nominative case, then the accusative and last the possessive.

The second term could also be the objective case. Pronouns used as objects.

I would be tempted to get an old Jerry Ford WIN button if I found myself on that campus, or maybe make a button with Polish or Serbian pronouns that would be tricky to pronounce.

If anyone asks me what my pronouns are I will say, "What a stupid ass question." I will no doubt be arrested for being mean.

You are right, Mrs! Sorry to have used the slang word. Our reproductive organs are IN NO WAY junk. Making my babies was an absolute miracle. Also if we couldn’t filter out our impurities by means of elimination, we would die. So our organs down there need respect. I apologize. :)

“...I guess that you have never heard of a HERMAPHRODITE and yes, they are rare, but VERY real!...”

Yes, I have, but that’s not the issue about here; the issue is the deliberate feminizing and demasculation of American men by the libs, and the politicization of it through law and academia.

Hermaphrodite individuals aren’t the folks protesting in the street, suing businesses to use the ladies’ room, and waving the rainbow flag.

Personally, I don’t care WHAT a person does with their life; that’s part of living in a free society. But when you politicize it, criminalize opposition to it, and try to ram it down our children’s throats, well, that’s a call to War for me.

That’s the issue.

In English grammar, a pronoun must match the case, gender, and person of its antecedent.

Therefore, what . . . . You're not disagreeing are you?

Old joke: Neurotics build castles in the sky.
Psychotics move into the castle. Political correctness Nazis demand everyone else move in also.

Personally I find castles in the sky lack a real foundation.

Reading nonsense like this about higher educations the one good thing I get out of this is I get to tell my grandchildren I had front row seats to the fall of Western civilization.

No time for such frippery. Gotta spend those classroom hours teaching the tenets of islime and fundamentals of buggery.

Thank you!

I am a writer, and I absolutely refuse to debase Standard English to appease such communists.
