The United Nations has put out a tweet asserting that people shouldn’t use politically incorrect terms like “boyfriend,” “girlfriend,” “husband” and “wife” in order to “help create a more equal world.”
“What you say matters. Help create a more equal world by using gender-neutral language if you’re unsure about someone’s gender or are referring to a group,” states the tweet.
It then lists a number of terms alongside their politically correct alternative.
These include mankind, chairman, congressman, policeman, landlord, boyfriend/girlfriend, manpower, maiden name, fireman and husband/wife.

And then there's the "Lavender Linguistics":
WTH is going to remember all this STUPIDITY?
First, there is no such thing as EQUALITY when addressing both human anatomy or social discourse... There are only two sexes and biological models... Male and Female in the Homosapien species.
It is amazing how STUPID the supposed informed and educated have become...They completely ignore scientific and cultural norms that have operated to define the human experience for eons... Instead, they choose to replace reality and the historical models with illogical and nonsensical definitions for the Homosapien species. Only, the maniacal, machinations of the macabre would suggest that male and female are equal by any objective standard.
It is this sort of reinvention of human history that leads to untenable expectations and ultimately cultural revolution... and chaos.
OH LORD so tell me what else does this globalist insane asylum say. WE DO NOT HAVE TO LISTEN TO THEM WE ARE SOVEREIGN THEY SHOULD BE MOVED TO ANOTHER COUNTRY GOOD RIDDANS.
And the college where I teach, the push for this is unabated, some faculty add
she, her, hers
he, his—after their faculty signature.
and the worst part is that almost 500 faculty and staff went to the indoctrination workshop, to find out how to be "inclusive."
Inclusive they have no idea of the meaning of the word.
No, they don't. By their very words, those of one "class" must be suppressed in order to "make equitable" those of another race, class, gender or ethnicity.
They are working to destroy excellence by their false "equality."
