I don't know about bro, but "dude" is gender neutral in my neck of the woods.

Yes I'm exactly that guy. Dudes rock.

Do Hamas and Hezbollah have any real reason to play ball with the "pause" Biden is proposing? My thought is that the Ghouls in DC know that Hamas and/or Hezbollah will ignore any ceasefire without meaningful concessions and will use that as PR. "See? We declared timeout and they still attacked. That means genocide is okay now."

That is a particularly annoying debate brained brainworms . Yes I will get angry at you for saying fascist things even if you say them politely.

norm-respectable moment.

I'm looking forward to being a full teacher because once I learn students names this won't be a problem.

If I do misgender or deadname someone I'm usually chill about correcting myself and in my experience students were chill about correcting me.

Thank you for the in depth comment, I really don't know why I put cis in all caps. I know it's from a prefix. But yeah in general I'll work on de-gendering my language.

Sorry my brain autocorrects to all caps cis because I do, in fact, type often about the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

"Sport" is non gendered if a say it with a "shhh" emphasis, right?

Hey trans comrades, I got a question as a CIS. I work with teenagers and there's a decent amount of them that are trans or simply non conforming to CIS stereotypical looks. I substitute teach, so I usually don't know the names of students.

I've made a mistake before of needing to get a kid's attention and saying "excuse me young man/young lady" or "excuse me miss" or something like that. And they turn around and I've misgendered them. What's a gender neutral way to get the attention of someone that I can start using instead of gendered words?

Damn I didn't know we had the whole gang. norm-respectable You should probably not vote for Sexx Tricker, even though he'll win anyways.
