Ashley Allen 1 week ago @V K You..you DO know how grammar works, right? A is an article just like "the". If "trans" as you explained is already an abbreviation of a noun then a trans isn't an insult and is in fact proper grammar. A boy. A girl. A person. A dog. A cat. A whale. A human. A table. A chair. A bag of flesh and bones. These are all correct uses of the article A. That person was in fact using A correctly. Do you even know what the term subject and object in grammar actually means? It doesn't mean some inanimate thing it's not an insult. I'm not going to bring politics into language. You can be offended all you want, but to say that they're using improper english is very wrong. Show less REPLY VK 1 week ago @Ashley Allen ok but you're not transgender. Neither of you are. So what gives you the f------ right to tell a trans woman what they want to be referred to by? Huh? l'm not here to tell you off about how transphobic that is. I'm here to educate you so you don't go around referring to trans women as a trans. Because we are not a separate gender, we're just transgender. It's going from one to the other. Now if you're going to keep on insulting me and many others who actually face discrimination when this term is used against us you're acting like a p------------. Get off your high horse and listen to what I'm saying. Show less It 5 g1 REPLY VK 1 week ago @Ashley Allen why would you argue with a trans woman about using the incorrect proper terminology? It's not being political it's being a decent human being. If you can't even act like a human being then stop replying. It 3 REPLY Ashley Allen 1 week ago @V K You've just politicised what I said AND you put words in my mouth. I fully acknowledged that you can have whatever sentiments about being called "trans" or "a trans" that you want. I said that I wasn't bringing feelings or bias into the conversation, so that you could understand exactly my point. My issue-my ONLY issue was that you were slamming someone over what you thought was improper grammar. Again. Gramatically they are correct. Whether you like it or not is an entirely seperate issue. One that I said I was neither beinging to the table nor considering as a basis for what I was talking about. You can like it or you can not like it, or maybe you don't care. Who knows? Who cares? It's not relevant to my point. Telling you that you made the wrong call about some person's grammar, and telling you why their GRAMMAR (again, only their GRAMMAR) isn't transphobic. Stop trying to read between whatever line's you've imagined in your head and stop projecting your anger on me. I'm not some sort of puppy to kick just because you feel like everyone is out to get you. Maybe it's just the way I came off, if that's the case then I'm sorry for that. get really passionate about proper grammar when I feel like there's a grammar nazi being an a------. Show less REPLY Ashley Allen 1 week ago (edited) @V K to put it more simply because I'm really trying to not get you heated over this: I'm telling you that as it currently stands within textbooks and what's being taught in schools about grammar and punctuation. Their sentence is gramatically correct. For example: If I talked outside and told the first person I see "You are a dog." That is a gramatically correct sentence . Does that make it right? No. Humanly decent? Hell no. Would they have a right to be offended? 100% But it IS gramatically correct. THAT is what I mean when I say that the person's sentence is correct without bringing in politics. Show less It 1 REPLY VK 11 hours ago (edited) @Ashley Allen well maybe instead of following what basic white man told you to say, since most of them are ancient and the word transgender isn't in school books so therees no way of knowing what's grammatically correct or not, you should take my advice as an actual trans woman and correct what you are saying like a f------ adult in 2021, and not one from fifty years ago who would rather shoot me in the head than listen to me. Because that's the kind of experience you're going to get if you don't want to listen to me. REPLY
