Comment on These dames wanting inclusivity

  Idgaf if dude can be gendered

  good for you, some people really don’t want to be called that.
  part of respecting someone’s identity is respecting the terms which they want and don’t want to be called by.
  getting them wrong doesn’t make you an asshole, getting them wrong and not caring does.

  People need to get over themselves

  in this context this is identical to Conservative “the new generation is too sensitive!!!” drivel.

  Are you okay having the tables flipped and someone calling you “sis”?

  Using male language as the default may not bother you and you may have no ill intent with it, but it does have a history tied to it. A history where women were seen as less than and didn’t have equal rights. Western society still uses male language slang regardless of gender (hey guys, dude, bro, bruh) and it all stems from a history of a patriarchal society. Every time we say, “hey guys” to refer to a mixed-gender group, we perpetuate patriarchy, whether we intended to or not.

  Legally and overall culturally, women are still seen as less than and we still don’t have equal rights (e.g. divorce and abortion law).

    Actually women have superior rights during divorce, in the western world anyway. Try to keep the children as a man during divorce.

    I honestly don’t think i would be bothered if someone called me sis. I think it would be funny even.

  I use “my guy” as a humorous precursor to the rest of my sentence regardless of whom I’m speaking to.
