re: Univ of Tennessee: No more "he" or "she". It's gender neutral time!

Settle down, dave. 1st, this is the appropriate board for the topic. Killz posted on the wrong board, I guess. 2nd, glad you searched. 3rd, I've always thought of this board as part of tRant.

If it isn't then mea culpa. Nothing to get worked up over this close to kickoff of the season. Well, maybe for UT fans.

The University of Tennessee has told its staff and students to stop calling each other 'he', 'she', 'him' and 'her' - and to start referring to one another with terms like 'xe', 'zir' and 'xyr' instead.

I read this thread the other day and figured I would chime in late to the party, there isn't enough of a beating that this woman could take for trying to make this an issue. I'm not even kidding, I get choices that an adult can make but what the frick is wrong with people that they think that kids shouldn't be referred to by a gender pronouns? frick this woman and frick transgender bullshite if this is the way they want to play.

I'm genuinely sick of this country bending over to minority groups that want to bitch about a non-issue.

Surprised it took someone this long to post this shite. Been on our board for like 3 days

Butch needs to get UTe under control

First, this is the appropriate board. No biggie though.

Second, I'm so glad this happened at Tennessee and not Mizzou. So glad.

Third, we don't see nearly enough of flesh eating salsa around here these days. More flesh please!!

Fourth, no way in hell will I learn some BS, un-pronounceable Chinese-German hybrid excuses for pronouns just to pander to the overly sensitive, special people. Life is full of things that offend us, we just have to learn to deal. It builds character.

Fifth, did I mention how relieved I am that this came from Tennessee and not Mizzou?

Finally, I'm a socially liberal independent. I believe in helping people, treating everyone fairly and equally, turning the other cheek, and being a Christian. I try to live as non-judgmental a life as possible. I believe there is no excuse that anyone in this great country goes to bed hungry, or lives a homeless existence unless they choose to. I believe in second and third chances, and helping people learn personal responsibility. I believe in helping people up when they fall, because we all fall down at some point or another. I try hard not to discriminate against anyone for any reason, and to look for the good in everyone until they give me a reason not to. But this PC bullshite has gone way too far. People can be as different as they want, it's what makes the world go round, and it makes no difference to me. Until I'm expected to change my thoughts, speech and actions to not just accommodate but insulate and glorify their differences. Then I'm just done. End. Rant.

Time to start putting the Leftists into concentration camps.

Hahaha Tennessee sucks

If we take away anything of value from this thread, let it be this.
