The introduction of a new gender-neutral noun+pronoun would be welcome in English too, in order to replace the clumsy "he or she". As in "when he or she presses the button". Using "they" is not really correct for singular cases.
I wouldn't want to see "he/she" and "his/her" abolished, but a replacement term used where an individual prefers it would be fine, I think.

@A_is_A ...."Let the record show that I LOVE WORDS and reserve the right to be both top and bottom!"
You and me both! (Although I tend to take control)

It’s always been interesting to me that lesbians for
example, even in this day and age are still very much into the
butch/femme/top/bottom esthetic. These are women who are free to choose
anything they want and yet they choose these archetypical male/female roles
even when the esthetic doesn’t match their sexually reality.
Anyway, don’t want to get into a whole boring political
conversation. Let the record show that I LOVE WORDS and reserve the right to be both top and bottom!
something i've often pondered myself. -
I don't want to turn this into a lesbo thread...but it seems Kiyuri already has, so I will continue. I was recently talking to this stripper who also happened to be ultralezzie. Our convo was about how different girls bring out different kinds of sexual energy in us. That's what I looove, all the different ways...how can you put a label on that? We've all been socialized to adopt these roles, so maybe a butch woman who feels like a man inside is just expressing what her version of a man is? It's all very interesting.U R I E L

Ah, fair do's!
BTW, this summer, I had - for the first time - a guest ring up for a booking, and say they were a gay couple, and would that be OK!? Might have been because there was an infamous case recently where a couple running a guesthouse, also in Cornwall, refused a gay couple. I think they said they objected not because of their sexuality but because they weren't married. Doh!

Glad to hear it H_J. Have your guests ever walked into the lobby with Goldfrapp playing? ;)

^ Funnily enough, I've not noticed many guests having similar musical testes to mine, until this summer.. a couple were jealous that I was going to see Sigur Ros (at Eden).. and it turned out we liked other acts/bands too (eg Goldfrapp and John Grant). Was a nice surprise as none of my lodgers have been into similar music...

This thread is virtually unhijackable.
If I were dead, could I do this? -
People might wanna pop in & greet me with a "hi Jack"... no?
