      Humanos is the masculine form. Humanas is the feminine form. I'm speaking about humanos and humanas. I should use humanes.

      You probably meant personas. That's because the word doesn't have a masculine form. The word doesn't change gramatical gender when refering to people of different genders.

          Why? I'm confident in my language skills and have no problem explaining basic grammar. I have also given lenguaje inclusivo a lot of thought, I know how I deal with it. You said you were being honest, so no need to interpret that comment as a lazy gotcha.

              because people will call you irregulares

              Which people.

              Edit: What's funny is that you're closer to the only valid criticism against this type of gender inclusive language than with any of the other dumb shit you have said. The use of gender inclusive language is classist, it requires the person to know enough grammar to make the appropropriate changes to their speech. Why don't verbs change? How do I know that adverbs don't change? Why is "Todes somes iguales" wrong? Not everyone does, not even the majority. The only way to move forward is to understand the reason it's proposed, and adapt it to your abilities. I'm not gonna call an LGBT ally a transphobe just because they don't understand how LI works. As long as they're engaging in good faith.
