Earlier you were saying that you reckon people are oversensitive about use of ‘dude’. You took the angle that it can be ungendered, and so people shouldn’t be oversensitive about its use. But now you mention ‘race-swapping’ and trans women. Apparently it is you who is oversensitive. You are upset about the way people express themselves in cases where it has no practical impact on you. You could just ignore it completely, with no cost and no impact, but for some reason you rail against it instead. It’s interesting what riles some people up.
Trans women are women. Therefore they should be allowed to play women’s sports. Seems simple enough. I don’t understand where the problem is.
Race swapping if it goes against, say, the description of a character, irritates me a little—The whitewashing of the main characters of Avatar: the Last Airbender in the live-action movie was pretty immersion-breaking for me.
Huh. That’s interesting.
