    OK I don't know much about Ben Shapiro other than he is a conservative Jewish commentator... You are comparing him to a Nazi website... That's not a very sensitive comparison unless there is something I am missing.

    I tried to post the Beatles "I Me Mine" a while back but apparently it's not allowed. Doesn't work, at least.

    The question is, has the experience of sexuality and gender changed to ...
    where it is today, a REASONABLE REQUEST that non-traditional pronouns be respected by people that, themselves,
    HAVE NEVER experienced and/or CANNOT relate to the FEELINGS, THOUGHTS, and EXPERIENCES of those claiming ALT-PRONOUN status?

    IF it is reasonable, then it not some overbearing power-struggle social-language control issue,
    as much as it is one of DECENCY.

    And the people may be victims of a re-organized mental-emotional-hormonal system brought about by a variety of blameworthy factors such as:

    - Single Parent households
    - Environmental Chemicals
    - Lack of Mental and Emotional Direction
    - Not enough ski wax
    - Too much ski wax
    - Social-Permissive Sexual Experimentation
    - Political Interference
    - etc.

    That casts such changes as un-normal and caused by other non-glorious origins. BUT IT IS POSSIBLE that the current state of affairs in all those areas is PREFERABLE. In which case, the result is also PREFERABLE. In which case, the state of gender and pronouns etc is actually
    HUMAN PROGRESS.



    Consider that this has come about in an age when people
    CAN DO WHAT WAS NEVER BEFORE POSSIBLE.

    When, in history, has a person actually been able to change their (1) perceived gender (outward) and (2) biological appearance, and (3) Hormonal Composition?
    When has it been possible from a (4) surgical/medical perspective? and/or from a (5) social-economic perspective?

    RE (1) We live in an age where clothes and makeup are easily obtained to change outward gender appearances, and an age in which it is OK and expected to do so sometimes just for fun, for carnival, and also as a solution to personal boredom.

    RE (2) Sex change surgery cannot change DNA, nor can it change historical mental/physical developments, but it can change the appearance of sexual organs and also possibly bring CHILD BEARING to the male born subject.

    RE (3) Hormone Therapy can change voice, hair, fat distribution, breast size and mental traits.

    RE (4) Historically, WHO could actually perform sex change surgeries? In the old ages, some people became a EUNUCH for religious or government reasons. Today, the ability to ADD and MODIFY exists where historically there was only the option to REMOVE.

    RE (5) Who can AFFORD sex change surgery? Now, the STATE PAYS for it as a HUMAN RIGHT in some places. It is seen as a COMPASSIONATE treatment by many.



    Back to where I started:
    Are Personal 'non-traditional' pronouns a reasonable request?

    I don't think so. There are too many, they conflict with previous meanings (singular/plural) and they are often changeable as people requesting them may in fact change what they request in the future to a previous or new pronoun.

    On the other hand, we do have 20 or 30 commonly used words for SNOW in SKI CULTURE. So why not a few extra gender words that we can all remember?



    Sorry. I know that was long. Back to my Squirrel Research in the mountain lab with The Administration. Lasers are getting smaller and smaller, but squirrels are as fucked up as ever.

    I'm not sure exactly how that follows but I would change this name to just about anything at this point.

    Can we just start a new acronym, say IAP for "Insert Appropriate Pronoun"?
    "...and furthermore, when IAP was being a whiny little bitch..."

    apparently now there is another choice re: relationship status too:

    Emma Watson is stunningly gorgeous, seemingly kind, relatively smart, conscientious, seemingly genuine, pretty good actor, ...

    I'd watch her self-partner herself.
