If you really believe that most of society prefers "pregnant person" to mothers, I encourage you to step outside your social bubble.


I didn't suggest that more inclusive language is the majority preference. I questioned the claim that the majority find it actively off-putting.

Personally I don't see that the more inclusive terms harm anybody and I doubt it would make a difference for most people.

I also want to say that I find the tone of your response to be quite rude, especially when you're misrepresenting my argument.


What's the overlap between "people who choose to listen to NPR" and "gender essentialists"?


I'm pretty sure most of society does not care, and would not find either terminology noteworthy if it weren't part of a prefix-apology.


If most people are put off by trans issues, why are most companies using trans pride flags in advertising?

Do you think companies are somehow averse to profit now?
