Review Of The Article 'But Offers Users The Same Three Tired Pronouns'

273 Words2 Pages

In the article, Dennis Baron writes, “Facebook Multiplies Genders but Offers Users the Same Three Tired Pronouns”, in which he talks about gender related issues. This is good for people because they incorporate all genders, but they still use only a few common pronouns. “Now, acknowledging that gender can also be complicated, the social media giant is letting users choose among male, female, and 56 additional custom genders, including agender, cis, gender variant, intersex, trans person, and two-spirit” (Baron, p. 721). People can identify as male or female, or keep their gender private, to make them feel comfortable to tell who they are. As someone who identifies just as a “male”, the article really makes me realize how much I take for granted;

    As an investigative approach to write an article on the lives of minimum wage workers for Harper’s magazine, journalist Barbara Ehrenreich conducted her research by assuming multiple low paid positions herself. Her essential goal for this study was to determine how low paid workers survive on their income. She began her adjustment to the working class lifestyle by establishing regulations for herself to eliminate any advantages she could have from her real life. In doing so, she abandoned all of the luxuries that her middle-class career afforded her, such as a comfortable living environment, fresh quality meals, and working independently. Immersing herself into this lifestyle allowed her to witness the arduous circumstances of low wage living

  • Rhetorical Analysis Of Transgentral Bathrooms

    1158 Words  | 5 Pages

    When discussing gender-neutral bathrooms, Laik references the copious amount of search results with the keywords “Transgender Teens, Bathrooms, Sexual Assault Risk, Higher Rates” in order to make the point to Jill that having bathrooms that they feel comfortable in is a necessity (Fischer). Jill analyzes the issue through the lens of her cisgender privilege, while Laik opens up another perspective by using the articles as evidence to prove to Jill that non-binary people are more unsafe in bathrooms. Another example of Fischer utilizing logos is when Laik explains how difficult it is to navigate life outside of what is typically accepted by society: “Like, if gender was a choice I would stick with the gender I was assigned at birth” (Fischer). Throughout their argument, Jill argues that “[t]he LGBTQ community needs to come up with better words than they/them. Find words that don’t already have meaning” (Fischer).

  • Gender Identity Nature Or Nurture

    1093 Words  | 5 Pages

    Some argue that people acquire their gender identity based on their social interactions with others or based on the gender roles, or stereotypes. For example, women usually tend to be more emotional and sensitive, while men usually tend to be aggressive and athletic (Whalen & Maurer-Starks, 2008). However, nowadays more and more men are becoming emotional and less aggressive and, in some cases, they are becoming homosexual, maybe because of the way they were raised; some children are raised without being limited by gender stereotypes and without being judged based on them, and this is most likely the effect of the current society people live in; where many countries accept homosexuality. Furthermore, nowadays there is a wide variety of gender options a person can choose, and this led to the fact that cyberspace must also adapt to this change, or more specifically speaking, the social networking websites, such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. For example, a newspaper article said that many Facebook users demanded Facebook to increase the gender options, rather than only “Male” and “Female”, so, Facebook responded recently by adding 50 different gender options.

  • Definition Essay On Gender

    878 Words  | 4 Pages

    I believe that people are allowed to be whatever they want to be within reason, so in that way I believe that there could be more than just two genders. I also believe that there is a difference between gender and sex, because sex is biological, and gender could be viewed as more of a cultural standard that has been created around people’s physical sex. Though I also believe that people should be allowed to believe what they want, so people should be able to think that gender means male and females, and other people can believe that it means more than that, and that both definitions should be respected even if they aren’t both believed by all. I have grown up with many friends that have identified as different genders than their biological sex, or have fallen in love with people that are outside of the male and female categories, and I respect their lives and decisions. So the way I use the word gender isn’t the way most people think of it due to my experiences and the way I was raised, to be open to new
