Then why do y’all care so much what you’re called? [Serious]
Do you say that when someone gets upset at being called the wrong name repeatedly? A name is something we made up but getting it wrong repeatedly shows a blatant disregard for the person it represents.
Sean - wrong
Shawn - correct
Shaun - also correct
I get it all the time, do I care if someone writes Sea(n)? Nope, people are fucking stupid. Just like mixing up feeling and sexuality with genders
We care because everybody deserves respect and to be taken seriously
I think you’re responding to a troll (see comment history, they’re stalking this meme and JAQing off)
I just wanted a serious answer.
Male and female is a gender
Lesbian, gay is sexuality
Mixing these 2 is fucking stupid
Respect is earned not given. I’ll give you the second one, I agree there.
So where does this making stuff up fit in with either? It seems pretty nonsensical to me
I’m not trying to upset ya just to understand, cuz it seems batshit crazy to me
Our obsession with gender is deeply weird to me (though not as weird as other languages that gender all nouns).
Why have we decided that the most important thing when referring to people (with pronouns) is their gender, over a million other things like their hair colour, height, political prescriptions, age…
It serves no meaningful purpose, and we as a society should get past it.
