Back in my day, pronoun’t.
Wait till they find out about Spanish
No nos hacen falta tantos pronombres porque conjugamos los verbos :)
Y todos los estudiantes de español tienen problemas con eso. (Al menos que ya hablen una idioma similar…)
Pero los estoy aprendiendo… lentamente.
Ape together strong
Imo mocking the term they use (“pronouns”) harms the cause. Mocking incorrect usage of the word doesn’t do anything but provoke eye rolling. They don’t mean literally all pronouns and they know we know. Mocking them like this just gives them an easy out and makes uncertain readers feel like they’re not being taken seriously, thereby pushing them towards the right.
I disagree
Last time no have pronoun
Is “my” considered a pronoun though ? Genuine question
Boo. This is the left version of the attack helicopter meme.
In my day there wasn’t pronouns…?
Back then, pronouns didn’t exist

As to not having neopronouns “back in my day”, a lot of neopronouns are surprisingly old. Ze is from the 1860s, hir from the 1920s. Even relatively new ones like xe have been around since the early 70s.
And they may be pointless for you, but they’re valuable to some people so why be rude about it?

I think the point some people try to mke is that they should be free to use the pronouns they seem fit. Forcing someone else to use language they are not comfortable with is just as rude.
“Let me use whatever language I want!” “Nope! That is rude!”
Both sides being rude.
