Happy Birthday Catherine/Daisy.WalterB wrote: ↑March 1st, 2024, 12:29 pm Well, I've said before about how political correctness is generally a bad thing. One such thing is an article about Catherine Bach. Remember her? Maybe you've heard of her shorts - Daisy Dukes?
Turns out, she's 69 today (dare I say it? A wonderful birthday for a pretty lady AND her guy, lol.)
Anyway, the newspaper, in reporting on this, says that she is an actor.
Actor? Dang, I always thought she was an ACTRESS!
The problem is, you are totally eliminating the female gender from ALL ACTING! Every person in the industry is male. There ARE no more actresses. I assume they've all retired.
I wonder how many women enjoy finding their female descriptives all replaced with male descriptives.
I say she's ALL woman!

Happy Birthday, Daisy.
How about "they?" A certain segment of society has co-opted that word because they're neither male nor female.lance_s wrote: ↑March 12th, 2024, 11:52 amHappy Birthday Catherine/Daisy.WalterB wrote: ↑March 1st, 2024, 12:29 pm Well, I've said before about how political correctness is generally a bad thing.

The English language needs a gender neutral way of addressing persons:
he/she = hse?
him/her = hir? (Can't use hem, its already taken)
"They" works sometimes. But writing gender neutral reports is challenging and definitely requires some mental contortions. Perhaps we should alternate. Reports written in even years will be masculine, reports from odd years will be feminine?WalterB wrote: ↑March 13th, 2024, 5:14 pmHow about "they?"

Not sure the LGBTQ community would buy into that one, lol.Since we are rapidly becoming eloi under corporate morlocks, perhaps we should stop referring to ourselves as people and start thinking of ourselves as merely protein based automata.
Reminds me of the line in Silence of the Lambs: "I'm having a friend for dinner".
Thank you Vicky. Missing phones notwithstanding, I will make a conscious effort to attend more shows.stickyvicky wrote: ↑March 14th, 2024, 8:53 pm Have a great time! I will miss you at my show on sunday!
