Wait, since when do different pronouns get their own flag?

Don't adjectives deserve flags as well?

From that fucking bullshit article
[quote]For most people, gender is black or white or, in other words, binary.
No, most people accept that SEX is black or white. Most people don't give a fuck about gender now that we've seemingly progressed from stereotypes that males and females should conform to ridiculous stereotypes.
[quote]Genderfluid people have a gender identity that is in a constant state of flux. This means that they may identify as more male one day, more female on another, and agender or genderless the next.
Wearing trousers, a dress, make up, no make up, having short, long hair, wearing flats or heels, walking with a cane and wearing a monocle doesn't stop you being a narcissist who wants to be treated differently based on how you feel when you wake up in the morning.
[quote]So, how do you get them right? As a rule of thumb, always ask someone what their pronouns are and how they want them to be used. Ask if they have a preferred pronoun or if you can alternate between the two. If you ask politely, most people will gladly explain their pronouns – and they’ll especially appreciate the time and effort you took to get their pronouns right.
"Hi Sue, I'm emailing HR to ask them about your application to reduce your hours. and work 4 days a week. How should I refer to you in the emails? Would you prefer She/Her, They/Them or just plain old Sue?"

[quote] How To Use She/They Pronouns
[quote] It can be confusing to use rolling pronouns at first, especially because different people have different preferences for how they’re used. Some people prefer to rotate or alternate their pronouns within a single sentence or from sentence to sentence. Others may have a preferred pronoun set depending on the day – this is especially common for genderfluid people whose gender identity fluctuates.

This is exhausting.
I am curious if H/R would back people up who demanded you alternate pronouns--that seems to me a bridge too far for jobs.

Anyone who does either of these things is just an asshole.

You've just called Halsey an asshole, r7. Remember when she/they got angry at Allure magazine for not alternating her/their pronouns correctly, and announced she would not do interviews anymore as a result?

Halsey is an asshole...as well as a cunt and a dick.

Follow the model of the Corporate Bullshit Generator and create an online generator that spits out a randomly unique flag based on keyword inputs that it completely ignores.
In that way, everyone gets their own unique flag which they can wear or carry and they can talk about it, bore the tits off anyone who would listen, actually. For hours.

I'm not doing this. That's exhausting. If someone wants to be called different pronouns, that's their perogative. It's on them to tell others how they want to be addressed. Assuming peoples pronouns works for like 99% of the population, don't know why we have to care so much about that 1%.
