    It goes without saying that I respect their wishes but I never understood why people want to get called they/them instead of their actual gender. Is it because they aren't happy with the gender?

    For anyone who doesn’t understand pronouns.

    It is just a simple matter of language. There’s allot of languages out there that don’t identify gender. Like in English we have he/she, him hers. And in Romance language there’s allot more gender identifying, from “the”, like Le, La which also means every word has to either identify with Le male or La female pronouns.

    In English we can easily transition to using less gender pronouns all we really have to do is say they them instead of he him his she her hers, and replace it with they them theirs.

    The only problem being the specificity of who you are talking to/about. Like if said they are cool, you don’t know if it’s one person or a group.

    People are so inclined not to change but this isn’t really not that difficult and takes the smallest amount of effort to ride with. Language changes all the time.

    also a lot of languages and cultures (especially historically, western imperialism and it's influence on global culture changed this a lot) have more than just binary genders and/or have a more nuanced understanding of gender

    the example many know about is many native american tribes

    It’s that but it has far greater ramifications on western society when high-profile people do it. It’s honestly worth resisting if we want any shred of rationality/reality/basis understanding of science left.

    And I’m being completely serious. Uzi should be ashamed of himself.

    we rly in a day and age where people change their gender identity for clout.

    this definitely happens but saying this about some unannounced change just makes you look like some bitter ass weirdo

    Uzi has done so much for the advancement of science in the last 5 or 6 years I don't think it's fair to judge so harshly based on one single action.

    lol nobody cares when Uzi says or does stuff like that because of his (sorry, Their) Kawaii type of persona. just look at how lit Uzi is in this video, you really think the person who created the Hi-Roll is ever gonna get cancelled?

    "because of his (sorry, Their)"

    yeah nevermind you're just a r*etard have fun

    i think it's quite possible to understand science whilst having a different set of pronouns actually

    Some of you in the thread are like that guy that fought Ali and kept calling him Cassius Clay

    Talking about science 24/7 just like that guy like "bro it says on your birth certificate your name is Cassius Clay you're going against the law or something?"
