Ill call you an it if I feel like jt

if you can't muster enough respect to address someone a certain way, from what I've seen this party certainly isn't for you

This isn't the liberal party where we refer to people for what they aren't.

If you want someone to call you something different theres a way to do it. In canada its legislated to force you to do it.

Ok. So why should I engage in any discussion revolving around morality when you spit on it like that? Or even take any of your arguments seriously?

it's not forced in Canada, there have been no arrests or fines as far as I'm aware

The general argument is idc until you try and force me to use your pronouns that may or may not be real.

And by the way, it is in the rules to be civil. Calling someone “it” isn’t civil.

^

Just relax.

Humans are humans, that's why we have pronouns.

I’m not here to try and cause discourse.

Him or her, I agree.

pronouns are entirely a social construct, there is no "real" to social constructs

I wouldnt say you are.

I mean if you want to be technical everything in your life is a social construct. Nothing that you see or hear can be "real" because your brain doesn't understand half of the signals its sent.

The modern idea of gender is a liberal construct without a base. Men are born men just as women are born women. The way we refer to eachother is by our biological pronouns.

thats not what that means

But is it such a bad thing if that changes, Slash?

I don't think you know what social constructs are

It was modern to use “thou” at one point in time

A social construct from the statement used would be something constructed by society.

Technically your society doesn't exist.

Now I think you’ll probably get laughed out of a McDonalds if you tried to order in old English

yes, and visual feedback is not constructed by society lmao

also just because something is a social construct doesn't mean it doesn't exist

Any kind of feedback can and will be influenced by society

language is a social construct, but it exists

No, however it's incorrect and needless for it to change. I won't refer to what is obviously a man as a women, the same goes the other way around.

Even out of respect to the person?

The pronouns in our language are anchored to our sex.

By what law?

You don't need a law for language to be anchored, are you a real person or a bot?

language evolves, gender and sex were semantically identical until ~40 years ago

Your responses sound generic and just likw the Clever Bot AI.

no need to make ad hominems, try to keep it civil

That's not an ad hominen, I'm being full on serious.

It was a rhetorical question. You’re right, there is no law for language.

That can be used the other way around as well. If its respect to call you by what you think of yourself as then you should give the respect back and respect someone's ability to deny you that respect.

Is it a program or an actual person? The responses don't sound like how a person would. No really.

Have a closer look.
