The one thing that Political Correctness cannot change Humanity is divided into 2: Male Female Which again is divided into 2: Adult Child Unfortunately, there are those in the world that want one's sexual orientation to be a sub division of humanity. Trying to get my head around political correctness: We have: Manhood Womanhood. Can't see humanhood working. :-) Can you? |

True, but even there, either one of the sexes will be more prominent than the other. |

The one thing that Political Correctness cannot change I do suggest that before making pronouncements like this that seem more suited to a sermon, that you read up on the actual scientific, biological basis of gender and how it can often become complicated. Here's a very good article from one of the premiere scientific journals to get started. |

Nice start to the article. :-) A 45 year old female pregnant. So she had both male & female chromosomes. Still female though. |

Well here we now have three genders. Han, Hon and Hen. Yes, a new word, Hen, for the third gender. In English that is He, She... but I don't think there is word for the third gender yet in English. Perhaps a grammatically problem when in English you have only 3 genders, maskulinum, femininum, neutrum, but in the Scandinavian languages we have 4 genders, maskulinum, femininum, neutrum, reale:) |

Neutrum, a table - the table , Swedish. :-) |

Que? Neutrum, of the Latin neuter - "neither (of the two)" What you mention is called an article. "A" table is an indefinite article "The" table is a definite article |

I entered those terms into Google translate. That's what came up. As for Reale, it knocked off the last e & gave the Swedish for chair. :-) |

Hehe:) It's funny that we humans learn to speak already when we are only about 3 or 4 years old and knows all the grammer. |

CRUMBS! Scottish Parliament staff BANNED from saying 'gingerbread man'’ at Holyrood coffee shop because it’s not gender neutral – as they rename biscuits ‘gingerbread people’ https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/scottish-news/3621770/gingerbread-man-biscuits-holyrood-scottish-parliament-cafe-gender-neutral/ LOL:) But what about a 'gingerbread man' in kilt. https://www.pinterest.se/pin/146226319123967024/ |
