> cis male heterosexual married father

How I long for the good old days when people used the word "man" to describe this.

I get what you are saying, but those "good old days" often ignored or downright humiliated men who were not cis, not heterosexual, not married, or childfree. There are all sorts of people under the sun.

to me it is more exciting that there is a whole population that can be more productive in our society just because the rest of us use a few adjective or pronouns. that's massive leverage with very low overhead, I like it.

  • I hope you're being sarcastic.

    • I was not being sarcastic. It is how I reconciled the otherwise jarring societal changes where its not clear who exactly has the consensus on a new concept and who to listen to.

      My conclusion is that what is asked is so low effort that it is inconsequential for cisgender people and improves the quality of life for people that felt marginalized and increases their productivity.

    • Why does that bother you so much? Language changes to fit needs. Always has, always will.
