Ok, seriouse discussion.

We are all aware of this trend with people not wanting to be identified as a boy or a girl.

And it appears on many occasions these people are particulatly vocal on how you refer to them.

Refeering to them as a he, or she is a huge no no.

Many of them prefer to be referred to as a them, their, they.

My question is, how do you actually apply that in any coherrant conversation?.

Them, they, their, is usually used in conversation or a sentence when refeering to more than one individual.

Ok example.

A boy has his sisters ball, and she wants it back,
You intervein
You say to the boy
"Come on now, give it back to her, she wants it back and its her ball"

Now same conversation only the sister wants to be identified as they, them their.

"Come on now, give it back to them, they wants it back and its their ball"

It doesnt work,

I prefer to just dehumanise everyone. You're all objects to me. From now on everyone's pronouns will be "it" and "thing"
All jokes aside,
Its a tough thing.

I have been having these conversations with my daughter.

There is a girl at her school that runs in the same friend group as my daughter.
This girl, has decided, out of the blue (earlier this year)

That she is non binary

Gets triggered when ever anyone refeers to her as her or she.

My daughter and all the others in the friend group fuck up daily.

They try to say them their they but slip up constantly causing this girl to blow up.

Its an impossible task.

Even in my post here. I refer to her as her, i struggle to word the conversation as they, them, their.

Its a very real issue in modern society.

As Dave Chappelle calls them, the Alphabet people.
Do they get offended by that?

I mean, thats the point of all the letters
Calling them somthing else offends them

Calling the alphabet people will surely offend them.

If only that guy was redpilled and based. Too bad he’s just a pick and choose type opportunist. Although it was great when he asked the crowd “who does that remind you of”
Cuck 1: trump!
Cuck 2: trump!
Wombman 1: trump!
Wombman 2: trump reeeee!

chapelle: that’s you!!!!!

On a serious note, those twitter kweens and non intimidated alpha kween males who put that on their bio should be looked at and looked after mentally and emotionally

To those that prefer to identify as something other than what they are that's fine, but don't expect me to tag along, I identify as someone who only recognises he or she... etc.

Don't trigger me by tying to go against what I identify as when asking me to call you anything but he or she.

Call me self centred for wanting to label all people by how they look naturally, but also call those who want to be non binary self centred when they expect all society to bow to their self centred expectation.

I can't help but think of the little Brittain "I'm a lady" skits after reading this thread.

That's still the minority. You haven't said anything wrong if you use gender pronouns, unless someone first asks you to use something different. Then it's the same as someone asking you to call them by their nickname, or common name, instead of their given name - eg: "Don't call me Aloysius, call me Al".

I become a leftist when a cop calls my mrs love after just being pulled over. Like why call my fkn mrs love she ain’t yours she is mein!
I used to work with a Mrs. Love - she didn't mind being called that.
Neither did Mrs. B White mind that a popular Christmas carol mentioned her name- "May all your Christ,Mrs. B. White".

Thats the point.
My daughter has expressed genuine intetest that her and her frends dont want to offend this girl.
But always forget to say them their they and say she instead.
This causes the girl to get triggered cause she has asked them not to.

It creates a very difficult situation where all the kids are walking on egg shells.

I blame to stupid left for this unnessasary situation.

This girl in my opinion is not offended.
She pretends to be like all other so called non binary.
