My pet peeve of the day is a Guardian article about the Académie Française saying gender-neutral writing will kill the French language (no less). Old men ranting at clouds get a whole article while the education minister gets two sentences.

It also used to mean you could ignore whatever what's written in it and it's not going to work anymore if it spreads.

Problem is that French is one of these languages where the masculine gender is "weak" so it doesn't have markers and that makes it functionally equivalent to neutral. For a comparison, in Spanish you have a masculine ending -o and a feminine ending -a. E.g. Latino and Latina. People have come up with using @ or x as a gender-neutral ending (I have no idea how they pronounce it, though). In French however, the feminine ending is -e and there's no masculine ending. So any attempt at making it gender-neutral has to include both an ending and the absence of an ending. There's no way you can do that without it being clumsy as all hell.

Why the gently caress wouldn't spanish just use -e or -i as a gender neutral ending ahhhhhh But yeah if I was going to gender neutral something in French I'd just go for the masculine ending.

Hebrew has a similar problem. I gave a talk in Hebrew for the first time a few months ago, and trying for gender neutrality basically meant jumping back and forth to keep even (the plurals in Hebrew are also extremely gendered, no luck there).

God will this inane debate crop up every-loving-where? Honestly, why does anyone give a poo poo about inclusive writing. It's mostly unobtrusive, has popped up for decades under many different forms - administrative letters using (e)s, stuff like that - and isn't hard to understand at all. Hell, you'll even find it in speech. "M'sieurs-dames" is a perfect example.

I hate that these people have usurped the name of the republic, given how their ideals are those of the Ancient Regime. I mean, Copé is the one who thought the abolition of privileges was unhealthy. Yes he really said that. How can these fuckers dare sully the name of the République by claiming to be its proponents?

Speaking of sexual assault, more on Ramadan: https://www.thenational.ae/world/europe/french-official-knew-of-tariq-ramadan-s-violent-sexual-encounters-but-failed-to-act-1.672183 quote:"That he had many mistresses, that he consulted sites, that girls were brought to the hotel at the end of his lectures, that he invited them to undress, that some resisted and that he could become violent and aggressive, yes, but I have never heard of rapes, I am stunned," he told French magazine L’Obs. "I knew he violently forced women to undress for him, but I would never have imagined he could be a rapist!"
