“Parent in New York sues to ‘marry’ their his adult child.”
‘THEIR’ ????
So the wokesters at LifeSite are now disregarding gender and number? Where was the editor on this one?
“Their” in the context of the article is used to avoid indicating what the sex of the parent is in this situation. Rather than being specific, they’re being arbitrary...
Instead of: “Parent in New York sues to ‘marry’ parent’s adult child,”
they say: “Parent in New York sues to ‘marry’ their adult child.”
I didn’t read the sex of parent or child in the article. Did I misread, or do you have more info?
thank you!!!
(that third person plural used for the singular idiocy drives me nuts!)
