I’ll be real with you. I don’t know any enbies and I’m neutral towards the idea of gender neutral language itself. Then why oh why do you think your opinion has any weight to a bunch of people you don’t even know about?!

The whole framing around this does come from the US, and it is a huge imposition, and the fact that there are some people in Latin America who adopt this regardless of this fact doesn’t do much for me. All I know is I’m allowed to be mad at the fact that bougie hipsters from America have more of a voice than 99% of regular people put together, and I don’t care what anyone else thinks. Don’t care where it comes from, the reasoning (of including people outside of the o/a is something I respect, as you should as a so-called leftist) and “the imposition” (maybe having to think about your convo or, gasp, apologize if someone would prefer a more neutral term!) and you’re acting like a bougie hipster yourself. Queer people are regular people too, we exist outside of your dipshit liberal acquaintances.

I don’t, I just posted a fucking poll. You guys are the ones making this about my personal beliefs.

If that’s being a bougie hipster then 99% of the population is a bougie hispter. That can’t be the case, so I’m by definition not a bougie hipster. Also I’m LGBT and I have LGBT friends, and they don’t use this language either. Enbies might, but I don’t know any.

OH MY GOD WHICH PART OF LATINAMERICA BEING CONSERVATIVE AS SHIT, SO MUCH SO THAT IT NEEDS THIS STRUGGLE SESSION DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND. Uggh, I hope you’re just a confused kid. Just, please, this is not liberal white americans just brainwashing us because we’re too dumb and helpless to have social issues of our own.

I’m LGBT, being LGBT doesn’t make you incapable of being insensitive or a bigot. Just ask the LGB terfs.
