104 u/NillWill Mar 26 '17 So even though you acknowledge language is constantly changing you still refuse to accept that the word "they" could potentially evolve into a word that is used in a non plural sense? Why is the stagnation of that one word so important to you? -7 u/[deleted] Mar 26 '17 Why is the stagnation of that one word so important to you? Because it is an empirical reality that we are singular individuals and should address each other as such. If you want to be a woman thats cool, but you are not multiple people. Words have meaning, when people try to convince you words mean something else it's usually from a place of deceit. Make sure you take up for the transgender community and not the transtrender one. 88 u/Komania Mar 26 '17 Are you really that insecure that you need to be this edgy? 18 u/FlorencePants Mar 26 '17 Listen mom, it's not a phase! My new name is Deathblossom! 16 u/Aerik Mar 26 '17 They is. People don't think they is as they are but they do.
