I am a man/male. :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by Prashant (United States), Feb 10, 2022 at 20:11

Dear Dr Pipes, I might be a racist MCP but I never volunteer 'my pronouns'. If some asks me to furnish an answer and I am not allowed to scream, I will tell them that my gender is 'male'. If I am trying to be nasty, I might also say that all English words used to refer to a noun are considered pronouns and he, she, it, they etc my pronouns. This last piece of knowledge is from my 3rd grade in India.
