Comment on Pronouns history
shalafi@lemmy.world 1 day agoI’m not mad, just saying that other people think much of this is silly at best. You just have to frame me as angry to have any sort of rebuttal.
And no, not a soul has asked me to call them any pronoun. I go with what seems to make sense and would be happy to be corrected. But I would still refuse the bullshit pronouns in the pic I posted.
How would you say “ey/em” can go fuck themselves?

“I’m not angry” “[entirely made up person I’ve never encountered] can go fuck themselves”
Usually, when I say someone can go fuck themselves, they’re being actively shitty. You’re just mad at someone asking you to use certain words describe them. If that pisses you off, you must have a really short temper.
Also, the “control” aspect remains. You want to decide what people be called. That’s just weird - how does it matter to you? Maybe consider DBT therapy, that’s all about dealing with how the world doesn’t have to be your way all of the time.
