twitch and 'womnx'

I'm taking home the point from this, that they actually don't know what they want, but the only thing they do know is that they want to be calling the shots. Always. So when they get one result, they'll change the demands because then they retain the power. It's basically an exercise in seeing how much power they can wield over anybody and everybody else, isn't it?

The absolute gall of them to say "womxn" is something we supported when they foisted it on us. Now they realise no woman wants "womxn", they blame us for it.

It's not like Latinx as that's correcting the fact that Latino (male) is used to mean men or women I believe

However...

"In November 2015, the Phoenix, Swarthmore College’s student newspaper, published a widely shared rebuke of the term. Student authors Gilbert Guerra and Gilbert Orbea described “Latinx” as a “blatant form of linguistic imperialism”—and claimed it was an attempt to force American ideals onto people living in Latin America because it wasn’t tailored to native Spanish speakers. Though the letter “x” in Spanish can take on a pronunciation similar to the English “x,” it can also take on an “s” sound, or an “h” sound, as with the Mexican state of Oaxaca. “By replacing o’s and a’s with x’s, the word ‘Latinx’ is rendered laughably incomprehensible to any Spanish speaker without some fluency in English,” they wrote. “It does not provide a gender-neutral alternative for Spanish-speaking non-binary individuals and thus excludes them.”

Men who identitfy as women, don't like the word womxn. Because they want our word!

I remember Greenpeace using womxn and I stopped donating.

Seeing as some people don't like it shall we start using womXXn instead?

Setting aside any other arguments or objections I can't see that anyone who says they are:-

a woman;
a trans woman; or
a transwoman (which some trans people do use)

got any benefit out of this.

I wonder if the ultra-woke Bernardine Evaristo, who refers all the time to "womxn", will take note.

I'm seeing people blaming ''terfs'' for inventing the word womxn to exclude transwomen...🙄

Someone might wanna tell UN Women and TedxLondon. I didn't see many TRAs harassing them for using ''terfspeak'' a while back. In fact, it was celebrated🤔

When women complained about the ridiculous word, we were told we're being exclusionary, bigoted bitches, how dare we not accept this inclusive, impossible to pronounce word! Now that a trans person doesn't like the word, of course it's all our fault.

Hopefully orgs will start realising they really can't win with this. The movement seems to start again from scratch daily, and everything they said the previous day doesn't stand anymore. Very easy to put your foot in it and do a wrongthink when the rules can change in a nanosecond...

does twitch give a shit what actual women think?

is womnx different to womxn?

or just a typo?

so hard to tell

I'm sure a couple of years ago there were lots of organisations womxning all over the place, when women said they didn't like the term they were told "tough". But if it's transphobic it'll be got rid of right away.

Though apparently most "latinx" people hate the term.

Do they?

The one I really don't get is "folx". Folks is already unisex so what's the point?

But I thought the whole point (according to them) was that womxn was more inclusive!
Women complain - nothing happens, we're told off for being too sensitive and transphobic yada yada.
The trans community complains about EXACTLY THE SAME THING and it gets changed.

I think this hilarious. Companies/organisations trying too hard to be seen to be inclusive, and it turns out nobody likes "womxn".

Just read this, at least we're all in agreement that it's shit.
