Topic: Pronoun rage
21. Author: Bletchley_Par Date: Sun 16th Nov 2025. 14:25 Topic Originator: The One Who Knocks like Date: Sun 16 Nov 14:12 When you have something to say you`ll say it and we`ll hear it. Well Wotsit did call it. "You are almost guaranteed to say nothing on a topic until the party line is formed and then, lo and behold, weeks later, you have a response to events ready to cut and paste from your propaganda website of choice." What party line? "Weeks later". Are you guys actually waiting on me responding to stuff? Even if i had time to spend on this site every day, I doubt i would. Reply
22. Author: The One Who Knocks Date: Sun 16th Nov 2025. 14:31 Well your here now. Speak your mind, the subject that you think Wotsit wants to engage with you on, what`s your thoughts? And although my eyes were open They just might as well be closed Reply

25. Author: Wotsit Date: Sun 16th Nov 2025. 16:41 I read that as a mealy-mouthed delaying tactic. What was it you actually said again? "The latest release trying to portray Trump as an abuser is a hoax." Oh yeah, that was the gist of it, niggle and winge about tiny details whilst ignoring the bigger picture. Guiffre isn`t one of the people who accused Trump, you are right. A lot of peole say that she was probably too old for him. "I think they tried to ensnare Trump and failed, if there was anything they would have already used it by now." Uhuh? The thing is that "both" sides are embroiled in this, Clinton is up to his neck just like Trump and many others, so it`s having to be forced out. That`s why it hasn`t been used until now, mutually assured destruction. It`s genuinely disgusting. The enemy travels by private jet, not by dinghy. Reply
26. Author: NMCmassive Date: Mon 17th Nov 2025. 02:46 Asking people to use certain pronouns isn’t just weird, it’s extremely narcissistic. You don’t own your own pronouns-other people will use the pronouns that they see fit to describe you. It’s very basic stuff. Anyone suffering from mental health issues should have care given to them.

27. Author: jake89 Date: Mon 17th Nov 2025. 08:42 Is it any different to someone called David saying they go by "Dave"? They`re stating a preference. Of course, there are people who lose their crap if people get it wrong, but all but one trans person I`ve ever met couldn`t care less (and the one who did was a complete dick). The point is how enraged people get at someone wishing to go by different pronouns. The posts on the Dunfermline Press make Dunfermline look like some backwater filled with hicks. There are similar comments on a story about a couple renting the Debenhams unit for a creative venture. I always thought Dunfermline was pretty open minded but clearly there`s an underbelly of ignorance. Reply

I will have you know I have no issues with being called David……Davie on the other hand is a different matter…..nothing worse than an older gent calling me that - Im not in my 60s/70s ffs! Reply
29. Author: Back_oh_the_net Date: Mon 17th Nov 2025. 16:32 Cheers for sharing that with us Davie 😉😂😂 Reply
30. Author: Wotsit Date: Mon 17th Nov 2025. 17:58 It does seem weird that people get so upset over something that has no impact on their lives. Why such a need to impose on others like that? The enemy travels by private jet, not by dinghy. Reply

Why such a need to impose on others like that? It seems to work both ways. Some people get annoyed if people get it wrong but others get annoyed that people use something other than he/she. Reply
33. Author: Dandy Warhol Date: Tue 18th Nov 2025. 06:41 I`m autistic, i genuinely struggle to refer to a singular person in the plural, so avoid it, sorry but it`s bad English, i have no rage over it though, in fact i don`t really feel anything about it other than in a word sense, it`s odd. I don`t wanna go down like disco. Reply
