I hate neo-pronouns so much. They're all shit.

[(Anonymous)]

I didn't mind the Spivak pronouns when I ran across them in The Joy of TeX (of all things!) but they never caught on.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spivak_pronoun

[(Anonymous)]

That's just normal English pronouns in a Scottish accent. 😂

[(Anonymous)]

Hahah ugh its true

[(Anonymous)]

Oh aye? Somebuddies pronouns are 'boot tae become was/were here, ken.

[(Anonymous)]

LOL! Gladly if it means I can go back to Scotland. 😭

Huh

[(Anonymous)]

ey/em/eir isnt that bad

ey laughs
I hugged em
eir heart warmed
that is eirs
ey loves emself

Still not great but way better than others I've read.

Re: Huh

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, those are the Spivak pronouns.

Re: Huh

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, but there were a bunch of variations among them, these were the ones I liked best.

Re: Huh

[(Anonymous)]

Those are pretty good, actually. The only one which sounds wonky to me is emself, but the rest sounds really solid.

[paperghost]

I've always liked those and ze/hir. I hardly know anyone who used them though.

[(Anonymous)]

I hate how they started out as, "we need a gender neutral term" and became, "LOOK AT HOW VERY SPECIAL AND DIFFERENT I AM"

[(Anonymous)]

This. Like, I'm not memorizing a different new pronoun for every person who doesn't want to use singular they. There are limits. Especially ones that were obviously thought up on the internet and the person never bothered to use them in real life. Like xe - which as an amateur linguist I would immediately pronounce "she". What's the real purpose of this?

[(Anonymous)]

How many people have actually asked you to use neopronouns for them?

[(Anonymous)]

In real life, around five or so. On the internet, I forget cause it was All The Rage back in the aughts.

[(Anonymous)]

As a nonbinary person who dislikes neopronouns but lives in a place where nobody will even call me they/them, I honestly envy you.

[(Anonymous)]

Come to Portland! My company has rules and regulations of font, size, color, and positioning of putting pronouns in your email signature. They just sent out reminders of the rules a couple of weeks ago.

[(Anonymous)]

Do you have to do it if you don't want to? I'm agender.

[(Anonymous)]

Nope. My feelings about gender are "Whatever, I just work here." I prefer to never have to think of them in regards to myself, so I leave them off. They are a part of community life up here though, so my company has made room for them.

[(Anonymous)]

Hi, fellow agender person! Don't take AYRT seriously. No workplace has rules like that, AYRT is just sarcastically mocking Portland as an overly "woke" city.

[(Anonymous)]

+100

[(Anonymous)]

You know what I hate? Peddles in my shoes while I'm walking and can't stop.

[(Anonymous)]

They reek of special snowflake bullshit.

They/them as a singular pronoun has been accepted for centuries. There's no reason not to use that unless you want to be a special sparklypoo unicorn.

[(Anonymous)]

Must be hard to be you.
