It is very much a slippery slope. If people get away with this, the next thing you know, married ladies will be insisting on their so-called right to stay in the work place when they should be at home looking after their husbands. Where will it end?This is where the gender nonsense goes too far. If Arthur wants to pretend he’s Martha, then Arthur should have the ability to stick ‘she/her’ into Arthur’s email signature. But everyone else shouldn’t be forced to embrace this rubbish. The default should be that if your name is Jack, you’re a man, end of story, unless you go out of your way to stick ‘she/her’ into your email signature to denote a gender issue.
Except for the fact that "Jack" is now considered a gender neutral nameThe default should be that if your name is Jack, you’re a man, end of story
Have you never encountered a female Jack?This is where the gender nonsense goes too far.

This has nothing to do with Jack being short for Jacqueline. This is the trans rubbish being forced on people, it’s Arthur purporting to be Martha.Have you never encountered a female Jack?
In this age of global connectivity and remote working, do you know the gender of all the people you work with? Is Sutchith male or female? Would Sutchith know if Aoife is male or female? Or even Robin can be confusing.
Personally, I'd prefer if gender specific pronouns were done away with, and 'they' was used for everyone. We don't both with gendered nouns, so why do it to pronouns?
I'm unsure whether to report your post here.trans rubbish..... it’s Arthur purporting to be Martha
The made-up issues that seem to have only appeared recently. Issues such as this represent one of the greatest threats humanity has ever faced. Not in themselves, but because they fuel MAGA Republicanism. Wokeism will indirectly destroy society.I'm unsure whether to report your post here.
I wonder do you understand the issues people face & how hurtful it can be to read remarks such as this?
It's hardly any skin off your nose as to what anyone's name is, or what clothes they choose to wear, or even if they undergo surgery.
So why do you feel threatened?
So far as the original question goes, I find it useful when people include their pronouns; but would strongly oppose employees being forced to do so.
This is exactly the issue, you're trying to police speech because it might hurt someone's feelings. Authoritarian & chilling.I'm unsure whether to report your post here.
That's fine, if that's all that was happening. However, when the government starts referring to "pregnant people" and introduces hate speech laws on foot of all this imported culture war stuff then we have a problem. You can believe whatever you want to believe, and people can self-mutilate themselves all they want, but the rest of us shouldn't be compelled by force to go along with it.It's hardly any skin off your nose as to what anyone's name is, or what clothes they choose to wear, or even if they undergo surgery.
agree 100%, if someone wants to do it let them off, but i have to see there are few things that annoy me more than seeing e.g. Paddy Murphy virtue signalling with he/him pronouns on linkedin, nonsense.This is where the gender nonsense goes too far.
