Not only did @UofDenver offer students to use ze/hir/faer pronouns- they actually sent out an official email to all students announcing the new pronoun choices. 15 options! This is what they’re focusing on. Imagine going into debt for this.
And here is the "Vice Chancellor of Diversity, Inclusion and Equity, Christopher Whitt", from where such ideas emerge:
I’d question whether a university that did something like this could deliver a quality education.
Students are still stupid enough to register there??
I prefer to be called “Master” but only by women because I identify as Major Anthony Nelson from ‘I dream of Jeannie’.
I really would say that and act 100% serious if they said I was kidding or that it was offensive and I would threaten to sue if my identity was not honored. This is how you fight these assholes, give them right back the bullcrap they throw at us.
Looks like they forgot “he” and “him” and what the hell is Spivak 1 and 2? Are they giving pronouns to space aliens now?
The only time a pronoun is used in conversation is when a third person is involved and you are identifying them, but not by name. Why don’t these idiots just request that in lieu of a pronoun, just say “this person” or “that person”. Unless of course, they don’t identify as a person. 🤔
Sounds more like Diversity than University omit all others that disagree.
Well, sado-masochism is actually a thing, so how can they object to “master”?
AA hire?
What about the FURRIES?? The idiots that “think” they are cats or dogs deserve their own pronouns, Christopher!!
One question about the use of pronouns. Does this list imply that one is supposed to use whatever the freak of the moment wants to be called in a private third-party conversation?
If I am to say, Jeremy (who identifies as a crow) wanted CAW-CAW sister to give CAW-CAW peas every day so CAW-CAW would be happy, does Jeremy really think anyone would buy into such nonsense in a private conversation?
Enough. The fools who are backing this are not necessarily fools as much as they are control freaks.
Evidently Spivak is some kind of gender-neutral pronoun list.
And heaven help the professor who accidentally uses Spivak 1 pronouns when talking to a Spivak 2 student! That would be considered hate speech, I guess.
Aren’t most of them?
Vice Chancellor of Diversity, Christopher (NITT)-Witt.
My pronouns are §he/her/her§, § being an approximation of the archaic long s, which looks like an unbarred f, because I am an old-fashioned girl, and I feel unrecognized because my keyboard provides only an approximation of the long s and does not represent my archaicness.
Please accommodate me. Thank you.
Academics have gone from counting how many Angels could fit on the head of a pin,
to counting how many Genders can fit into a
Diversity Glossary List.
Christopher Whitt’s real first name is Half.
Lol!
So, at 75 if I start checking the AA race box at the doctors office, thunk anyone would care confront me? Yeah, likely. 😁👍
Where’s the he/him in there? Am I missing it?
First, they came for our pronouns.
Can adverbs be far behind?
Resist their diabolical plot to destroy English grammar!
