Another critique of the article was that some of the students quoted seemed to be prisoners of language and of stereotypes themselves. As one commenter, cyncytee, who claimed to be posting in Cincinnati, wrote on October 1: Put me in the relatively intolerant column on this one. English pronouns distinguish male from female by “equipment,” as the story puts it. That is not repressive. Over several generations, society has come to accept that physical gender does not—or should not, at least—determine one’s life roles. That’s for the better. Denying physical realities because of how one feels in the morning is ridiculous. How ’bout we just learn that hims and hers come with all sorts of vocal pitches and outward accouterments and that invoking old, gender-specific traditions doesn’t make one that gender. What responses might the supporters of PGP’s offer to this critique of their assumptions and actions?
