T**********e 发帖数: 29576 | 1 Now comes the AP’s gender rewrite. In a series of tweets on Tuesday
explaining the changes first promulgated earlier this year, the AP’s
editors contended that “gender refers to a person’s social identity, while
sex refers to biological characteristics” and admonished writers to “
avoid references to being born a boy or girl.” The venerable news agency
also endorsed the language- and prose-disfiguring use of “they/them” as a
singular pronoun. It even left open the door to more exotic made-up pronouns
such as “ze” and “zir.”
Tuesday also saw the AP introduce a new rule: Instead of the expressions “
sex change” or “transition,” writers are to use “gender confirmation.”
This was a deep kowtow to the transgender movement, which believes that
physicians don’t alter anything essential or fundamental when they perform
a sex-change operation: Caitlyn Jenner was always Caitlyn Jenner. The
operation merely confirmed this ontological fact.

Transition is the process by which people match their physical
characteristics to their gender identity. For medical procedures often but
not always used for a transition, say sex reassignment or gender
confirmation. | n****g 发帖数: 14743 | 2 为毛要分男女呢?

英语还好了,就是she he, his her搞一搞,德语每个名词都有性别,男女中,对应不
同的pronoun冠词,闹起文化革命来都得重学德语。
