site’s back, time to party
It feels like (anecdote time) just over the last five or so years, “they” as a neutral singular pronoun has gone from a fringe concept for assholes to bitch about grammarwise (and they sometimes still do) to a very commonplace word. I hear it in sloptube videos and stuff, even goofy gamer ones. Truly a banger
Unfathomably based, ngl. I was only introduced to it like eight years ago at all…
What would you have done if someone references a person and you want to refer to them without knowing their gender or similar cases? “He or she?”
Almost as if singular “they” is a natural part of the english language that’s been around for centuries and all the people complaining about it were just transphobic
Thank goodness a lot of people got over the “improper grammar” discourse, it would always piss me off when I saw many people making the same BS arguments.
