“Common sense” is often an opinion disguised as fact, and this is no different. It’s no better than calling something “logic” and claiming it’s objective. It’s all subjective, it’s all opinion. Bigotry is always an opinion.
Not even getting rid of pronouns it's the normalization of abnormal and special pronouns that the OP wants to use that's annoying as all hell. Where the only results are either you A submit and use their terminology. Or B reject it and hurt their delicate feelings.
A no win situation because of someone else's delusion.
That’s what I was responding to. But, sure, we should totally pretend that language never changes or evolves, just to protect the delicate feelings of mentally ill people who are obsessed with what’s between other people’s legs, especially children.
Forcing language to change is not normal. Especially when some goverments have taken it upon themselves to make it illegal does it cross a hell of a lot of lines.
That's why you now see people entrenching themselves into the idea. Theres no winning so it's better to dig a fox hole now.
It wouldn’t have to be “forced” if governments weren’t making it illegal and people weren’t digging in and refusing to progress. That’s the part that’s not normal. Trying to force your beliefs on other people and making them conform to your world view isn’t normal. Letting people live how they want and minding your own business is normal, and that’s what the law is in most free countries. We shouldn’t be using fascist governments as an excuse to deny rights to minority groups.
Really annoyed people disrespecting my gender pronouns?

So, if male, and female aren't a thing, why do we need pronouns? As you seem to believe male, and female, are malleable?

Even if that weren’t a strawman, I have no idea why that would mean we should get rid of pronouns altogether.

“why do we need pronouns at all?”

Langage changes. Totally.
Forcing language to change is not normal. Especially when some goverments have taken it upon themselves to make it illegal does it cross a hell of a lot of lines.
