I'm trying to make the poing that changing language to be inclusive doesn't work. It's the same as the LGBT group, that now is LGBTQIRBFHAHFH or something? I lost count. Same with the damn rainbow flag that now looks more like a million pixels project than a flag.

Every day there is somebody out there that feels special and now needs to be included too and it hasn't stopped and it won't stop.

Somebody is trans and wanted to be a man and transitioned? How about we just call them what they wanted to be in the first place? "Men". Simple.

This entire "people with penises" languages is just made up solutions for made up problems that doesn't actually solve or improve anything
