Yeah on the insult bit, my bad. I was angry because of unrealed issues. Soz.

Except somehow a Gender-neutral language is one that has no gender the way I described. So what is the opposite of a Gender-neutral language? Gender-inclusive? Gender-bias?

“John Green is not under an obligation to tailor his statements to you personally.” Nor am I.

Also it is really funny, how you have no issue generalising 8 BILLION people, and what they understand and how they feel.

Yes the ‘grammatical’ in the term ‘grammatical gender’ is the operative word. A GENEDERED language, has pronouns. Because I happen to be able to speak one of the few ungendered languages in the world I know what the term means.

Yes? Because english is the global language? It does not belong to English speaking countries anymore? You lost that with forced colonization? There is no countries on the internet? It is funny how when it comes to MY concerns, and me being offended and being talked down to, the clarification is suddenly ‘uneccesary’, and ‘realised by everyone’.

Well this tweet is mocking the hardship of using different pronouns. It is specifically critisizing the notion that this let’s be real malicious syntax causes ‘hardship’ for someone, writing off the 8 billion people who’s language isn’t native english as morons with a tiny ridiculous problem. IT SPECIFICALLY DOES NOT MENTION INTENTION, it frames not calling someone by their correct pronoun for WHATEVER reason as a person who is either mentally incapable, privilaged, or a whining bitch.

It mentions no conditions, no clarification, it writes off everyone who fails to comply, as people WHO HAVE NO RIGHT TO COMPLAIN.

So does your comment. "Sorry, why is it such a hardship for you if someone says “don’t call me he, please, call me grit?” - Having grand expectations of MY compliance, yet not applying the same standards for yourself. Why is it such a hardship? What POSSIBLE hardship can you experience conforming to me?

The fuck you are talking about? You didn’t have to explicitly say your forays of language studying were brief, anyone could tell that after a second of reading this. English is a gendered language. Obviously. It has gendered pronouns. My native language doesn’t have genered pronouns AS SUCH. It is a non genderd language. They are rare but they do exist. The fact that nouns can have pronouns that apply to specific Nouns, like das Külschrank, doesn’t make it a more gendered language. This is just factually wrong, and is so poorly researched it is amusing.

Similarly is it that big of a hardship that someone accidentally misgenders you? Because if that is a prolem in your life I am super envious of your life. It sounds amazing. Please trade lives with me so that I can have your tiny ridiculous problems.

To be fair in the other direction. Debian and Ubuntu and forks have it. They handle pretty much all filesystems fine, which is indeed impressive. Suprisingly Windows also has pretty good EXT drivers, so in a way the world is in harmony :D .

Hang on there is a sync option? Does that make the progressbar work? If so why is it not enabled?

This is funny, because copying files to a USB flashdrive, is just inherently disfunctional in linux.
