I'm gay and in Texas so I'm around queer Hispanic people and I've heard some of them say Latine

I don't get why it makes some if you guys so mad. Like, nonbinary anglos exist and some of them prefer to refer to themselves with gender neutral language like "they" even though that's not customary usage or whatever.

Nonbinary Spanish speakers also exist, is it really such a big deal if the want to use words like elle, Latine, etc to refer to themselves, like who cares.

Idk I've heard Spanish speakers use it.

Is it really inconceivable that, like, queer and nonbinary Spanish speakers exist, and maybe they're having their own conversations about sexuality and gender and language.

Idk maybe they don't have original thoughts of their own and their discussions and thoughts about queerness or gender equality or identity or whatever are all imposed by colonialist Anglos, but I kinda doubt it personally.

Tbf though my most colonialist opinion probably is that grammatical gender is dumb af and should be gotten rid of already.

Do I really feel like remembering that pens are ladies unless they are ballpoint pens and then they are gentlemen. Or that you need a gazillion demonstratives in three genders to get around in German and they don't even make sense, girls are sexless neuter things sure why not.

Or that (most) Dutch has two genders, but they're not what you think, the two genders are (1) male-or-female and (2) genderless.

This includes English, gendered pronouns are dumb too.

Latine's fine. Latinx was abominable though and I will never stop shaming academia for making an exclusively textual term the default spoken notation.

I'm willing to cop to it if I'm dead wrong on how this relates to the Hispanic community but my position is that I'm Filipino and when they tried to make "Filipinx" happen fuckin' nobody in the mother country liked it, not even the local queer community.
