Renard Queenston is a sex offender

[GammaBlaster]

if you're referring to the usage of the pronouns

it's out of respect to transgenders

[MarioNintendo]

Pronouns, punctuation, and just straight out not really saying what's going on. Who's nishi? Why does she get raped so often, for starters? This is page 11 in the thread, so I guess it has been discussed extensively, but geez. These people are something else.

this right here

it's not that renard didn't do something selfish and disrespectful, but to label renard a "rapist" for what is most likely a situation where two people just didn't see eye to eye on shit, is even more fucked up than what renard (possibly) did

maybe.

because nobody really knows what happened anyway, making these kinds of judgements is especially bad

[choof]

that renard post is a great post, really loving how much attention he's trying to grab

"They" being plural but talking about a singular person makes 100% of this thread completely fucking impossible to read
Say what you want about gender pronouns (I'm all for using whatever word suits your identity best) but holy fuck at least obey the basic rules of grammar, talking about only 1 thing = don't use plural, pick a word that makes sense please.


Also to me this sounds like a bunch of idiots with confused sexuality that felt each other up, and rather than being mature about the regret that inevitably can come with that, everyone is just being cryptic and angst-y. This is fueled by the anonymity the internet offers, not to mention the massive fanbase of people who eat up every scrap of news like it actually matters to them.
Probably going to ruin at least one person's life with slinging around labels like "sex offender" when in reality it could have been handled so much more maturely.

Honestly, after working on a college Academic Standings board, I've seen both sides of the coin... and honestly usually both sides are total overreacting idiots, so eh, this is what happens. (fyi 99% of the time, unless you can conclusively prove someone was drunk/etc at the time, it winds up only going on the guy's record. male privilege?)
Men should just accept that, unless you have proof, if you touch a woman you don't know extremely well, you run the risk of being called a rapist and having your life ruined. Welcome to the real world where the law holds firm and the truth doesn't matter.

Better tell Shakespeare and Jane Austen that they fucked it up.

Them had better tell Devonin that him doesn't care.

[Cavernio]

You is both plural and singular and you don't have a problem with that. We don't use 'thou' for the singular of you anymore.

Credit to Hi19hi19, I only added " around "real world" because honestly that phrase. It's such fucking shit I hate it. Uhg. Kill that two word phrase with fucking fire.

As to the whole they thing, unless you have Dissociative Identity Disorder medically diagnosed, fuck you it's him her or it.

Thank you for airing your prejudices so openly. That way everybody knows without having to wonder.

[GammaBlaster]

you are all a bunch of transphobes ! ! ! !

[TheSaxRunner05]

I don't wish to be called human because it offends me, I want to be known as Crocodiles. Don't hate me because I am a Crocodiles or I will call out your bigotry.

[devonin]

If you seriously asserted that you felt like you were a number of crocodiles and so wanted to be a Crocodiles, that would be fine. Trolling to show your contempt for people with actual gender identity issues, not so fine.

[Izzy]

You seem to be taking it a bit to personal devonin. Everyone's problem with this has nothing to due with this persons identity.

If this person wanted to be considered either female, male, shemale, malefe. maleshe or it that would all be totally fine. I have zero issues with gender identity, but getting offended when people don't agree to call you something that doesn't make sense to English grammar is just being unreasonable.

[TheSaxRunner05]

You can call yourself whatever you wish, but it doesn't change your biology. Yes, I realize there's a difference between sex and gender, but when it boils down to it, we are what we are. The true issue is how cemented gender roles are in society. They want to turn away from sterotypical gender roles, that's great. But when it comes down to it, the pronouns he or she are a biological matter of sex, not gender.

[Izzy]

That kind of reminds me of that whole story of the parents that were pushing a female gender role on their son and demanded that he be allowed to use the girls bathroom at school.

Even if the kid totally identified as a female that doesn't change the fact that he had a penis. Bathrooms are the way they are for an entirely practical reason. It has to do with biology, not gender identity.

Pronouns aren't quite so objective, but they should still follow grammar rules.

[reuben_tate]

Wait, so why don't we have gender-neutral bathrooms yet?

[Izzy]

I'm sure that must be very offensive to Renard.
