Thanks SCOTUS
Any bets that the customers asking for pronouns are just as real as the gay couple in the SCOTUS case?
Possibly. Easy free advertising for bigots.
Yeah, it seems unlikely that someone with that attitude has trans clients, but since it was all about pronouns rather than plain bigotry, they get to be the victims of their own story.
and honestly, how often does the person who cuts your hair use a pronoun other than βyou.β
Well, I do still cut my own hairβ¦
It must depend on where you get your hair done, because in the past that has been my experience. However, the salon Iβm currently going to is much different. The employees all talk with each other and I hear so many she/herβs in reference to me while Iβm there.
donβt they know this is how unions start!? sure, a little talking seems like a good idea. at first. but itβs a slippery slope. βhave you seen my clippers?β can quickly become βvive la rΓ©volution ouvriΓ¨re!β
yeah, that makes total sense. iβm used to a barbershop. i can see a salon would be a different situation.
like so many of these things, if a business owner canβt treat customers well: they need to stop working with the public.
Theyβre starting to go after the race neutral measures to try and address discrimination now.
And then, when Trump loses, heβll claim the trial has to wait until after the 2028 presidential election he would obviously run in
Provided he lives that long
The odds are NOT in his favor.
Working as intended; an illiterate populace is an easily controlled populace.
This is something I donβt understand. Why would a trans woman object to she/her pronouns? Isnβt being accepted as a woman kind of the point? Or at least part of the point?
(Please donβt everybody jump all over me or have me modded out of existence for this. Itβs a sincere question. I want to understand, I just donβt at the moment.)
Itβs pretty clear (to me, at least) that was a legit inquiry; not βJust Asking Questions.β
As a trans woman, I enjoy hearing she/her. I was responding to a post questioning the use of pronouns other than βyouβ.
Sorry, I wasnβt necessarily saying you were objecting. The discussion is what prompted me to finally ask, maybe I should have replied to @gatto instead.
