U. Wisconsin-River Falls Says Correct Gender Pronouns More Important Than Grammar

“It is a privilege to be cisgender and not have to worry about which pronoun someone is going to use for your based on how they perceive your gender.”

I have been saying for years that we are coming to a point where the left’s agenda overshadows education. Here we are. Progressive pronoun usage is now more important than grammar.

Campus Reform reports:

University says correct gender pronouns ‘matter more than grammar rules’

A University of Wisconsin-River Falls webpage tells students that “asking someone their pronouns is like asking someone their name,” further stating that failing to refer to someone by their correct pronoun “is not only disrespectful and hurtful, but also oppressive.”

The information comes from a “Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging” webpage titled “Gender Pronouns,” and shows a pronoun “How-to guide,” which lists “E/Ey,” “Per,” “Sie,” “Ve,” and “Zie” as valid pronouns that are used.

The “Frequently Asked Questions” portion of the webpage states that “it is a privilege to be cisgender.”

“It is a privilege to be cisgender and not have to worry about which pronoun someone is going to use for your based on how they perceive your gender. If you have this privilege, yet fail to respect someone else’s gender identity, it is not only disrespectful and hurtful, but also oppressive,” the webpage states.

Further down, the university encourages grammar rules to be broken for the sake of feelings.

In response to “But ‘they’ as a singular pronoun is grammatically incorrect!,” the university states that “People’s feelings and identities will always matter more than grammar rules.”

“But it’s my job to make people dumber!”

Sorry, but you’re either a he, a she, or a complete moron.

I’m happy with my privilege, thank you very much.

What of the incomplete morons? Their flakes melt too!

I’ll use whatever pronoun they want provided I can follow up with the title of twat or prick

If they go to France, are they “la” or “le”?
