Shelby commented:I know it goes against the English major in me, but I vastly prefer the plural they/them used in a singular reference than trying to keep track of which student identifies with which pronoun or inventing new ones like ze which to me sounds just silly (I remember back in college, pre-Albion, a push to call restaurant servers "waitrons"). I don't see how inventing a new rather ridiculous word is "more correct" than using a gender-neutral but incorrectly numbered pronoun. Language is fluid--people use it verbally all the time. Let's just go with that.on Mon Mar 17 22:29:30 2008 |
