Addison Rae 18,156 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I mean as long as it makes people feel more comfortable then that's all that matters. But people on the Tube are so rude that's why I try very hard to avoid going on it. Full of no mannered baboons. sitting on his lap sipping diet pepsi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatrickMonster 6,957 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 this is what makes more and more people homophobes and transphobes... my GP coworkers were talking about it like they were really angry and they thought its just so unnecessary and stupid. Hopefully at least some people feel better now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they are people identifying as neither or are born inter. Just because they stop saying Ladies and Gentlemen you aren to less feminine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuchulainn 3,040 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Not sure why you guys seem offended about them saying 'everyone'. It's not that big of a deal. It's just a bit more inclusive. It's not the most important thing in the world, but it's a super minor and simple change that probably took less than five minutes to do... We aren't somehow losing focus on bigger issues because they changed this announcement This reminds me of the rage people have during the holiday season when people say "Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Jane Wayne 1,997 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Kind of pointless but it doesn't bother me. If it makes some people feel more comfortable about themselves, then it's all good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When someone is intersex, their anatomy doesn't doesn't match their chromosomes. They're still one of the 2 genders, they have one on their documents depending on their chromosomes.

Saying 'everyone' is just pointless because they basically said everyone before. It's not that big a deal, it's just kinda dumb. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
