      When you use the stats of cis/hets not liking or using terms meant to be inclusive of non-binary/queer people as a reason for the term being bad. :cringe:

          (didnt save the password so had to make a new one oops definitely not worth it just for posting this comment but whatever)

          Like I said latine is used more. A word or phrase could sound perfect and it wouldn't matter because that is not what it is actually about, most cis people just do not want to acknowledge non-binary peoples existence, let alone expand their languages to include us. Just look at the outrage every time someone dare utter the words ''people who menstruate'' for example.

        If it's not sexist, is it really a romance language?

        They are still people, and if the goal is to find widespread acceptance for the word, maybe a better letter than fucking "x" should be found.

          Latine is used more. Which people would know if they actually cared about the topic, instead of just wanting to laugh at them silly trans people and their x's.

            Hell, I'm not laughing, I just think convenience is key when trying to gain widespread acceptance for a neologism. I actually think this "Latine" sounds like a much better alternative.

      It's even worse in Spanish because the name of the letter X is ECK-EES
