Well don't leave us hanging! What language?
post
ofc I noticed the obligatory typo in the meme right after uploading. I do know how to spell nobody.

I know it's little to no consolation, but people/allies are researching and advocating. I'm also part of the above paper but I won't divulge more here. xD
But … you already printed your name to stdout ! ^-^
that really suck :<
ngl as someone without a gender, learning spanish is such a pain sometimes because for me to even speak gender neutrally (about myself) i basically first have to find how the spanish language queer community does it and none of the teaching material uses it ofc and i am sure if i ever joined a class, i am sure no one else would even know how to speak about me gender neutrally and i'd be dismissed as speaking incorrectly :<
Depends which Spanish you're learning, and your objectives. Many Latin American Spanish dialects are still queerphobic, so finding resources for queer inclusive media would be a cliff-climb endeavor, esp. how femicide culture is deeply ingrained. I know nothing about Spain or European Spanish, or cultures ftm.
Mexican queer culture uses the -e to replace gendered words, as in: Hola amige, tu eres muy bonite.
This follows the rules of the Latin language on which Spanish is based. People might still call it incorrect, but that'd be no different than the idiots who think 'they' can't be singular in English.
tu eres muy bonite
¿soy?🥺
thanky yis this is also what i do or well try to do. it's a bit hard when none of my study material uses it...
I feel ya, I don't live in Mexico or speak Spanish super regularly anymore but my sister and I try to make a point of using it when we talk to each other. Also, if you watch Drag Race Mexico, I've noticed a lot of them use the terms quite naturally (though they speak hella fast so might be difficult for a learner). Good luck!
French is beautiful language.
The people though😬
