• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Not everyone can spend time with their children all day. There's a reason preschool exists.

    Hmmm..... I like it. Hopefully this will start a chain reaction to create similar projects around the world. First though, we have to see if this is actually successful.

    I don't believe they did?

    It's rude to call someone something negative.

    Pathos, you say you weren't being rude, yet you say you were calling him lazy? I believe you invalidated your own argument, there.

    Yeah, that's what I meant, thanks. Wasn't sure how to word it.

    Really, the only "official" term seems to be "they," but pretty much the whole anti-they argument is that it isn't sufficient, so.

    Hmm... If there was just one gender-neutral pronoun, instead of many, I think I'd be more accepting, as long as it didn't look or sound stupid. (@Opaltiger: I've actually seen zhir/zhe/zhem (I think? on the last one) being used.

    Yeah, that's what's not making sense. "They" seems to be doing the job just fine; there isn't any need for "zhir" or "blarg" or "ywubfgfh" when we already have one word for a gender-neutral pronoun.

    I completely agree with this. It doesn't make sense to me how we would need more pronouns.

    I'd like to know the difference be tween transgender and transsexual? From what I've read, both are when an individual identifies themself as a gender differing from their "assigned sex."
