• 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?

    I understand. Sorry for the confusion. *re-rails thread*

    I'm actually not sure how I'm supposed to interpret/respond to this, but: If you meant it straight: That's partially my point, in a much more graphic manner, although I wouldn't have been anywhere near that harsh. If you meant it ironically: I understand what you mean entirely, and I already...

    I agree entirely with the first part. I guess what I'm trying to say is when people go "oh we have it so bad here"... it just irks me to a degree because they don't, not in comparison. I'm just sick and tired of that when I actually see worse on a frequent basis. But yeah, wherever in the...

    It is rather stupid, but honestly, I think the chip in the female Pikachu's tail is rather cute. *ducks* And to bring this thread back to more serious ground: [Efferconrant] So I did some calculations with the numbers in that article, and it comes out that British women in management earn...

    And I often play as the girl. And to add to this, Wormadam is all-female, and Granbull is mostly female. Neither of them look stereotypically feminine - in fact, I'd say Granbull's quite the opposite.

    Just curious - do any of you honestly think that the non-cisgender people who prefer to use "he" or "she" rather than their own pronouns are actually hindering the chances of non-cisgender acceptance in mainstream society and the like? Because while I don't, I could see why some might think that.

    I think what he's trying to say is that: 1) He would use specific pronouns if other people request for them to be used, but... 2) if he were non-cisgender, he would not ask others to use a specific pronoun for him. I agree with both, by the way. On a sidenote, I was actually a tad nervous...

    I mean that I'd use "they" by default, but I would have no problem with using other pronouns if the other person prefers it. Basically the following:

    1) I use they/their/them as gender-neutral pronouns - I think that the coined ones sound far too fake, and, quite frankly, slightly degrading to non-cisgenders. 2) Butterfree summed it up for me. Gender as a societal construct/societal gender "roles" just shouldn't exist - it's caused many...
