Is this widespread now or something?

You get a free they/them bonus and you're complaining? Everybody else is lying anyway.

Wow that must've been really traumatic for you, OP. Perhaps you should expand on that in your blog, instead of an imageboard about books and literature.
>>

>they force you to include your pronouns when submitting
This is quite honestly fucking stupid and should be treated the same way as if they demanded that you state your ethnicity before you submit. Unless they are simply asking what they should refer to you as and not as something they'll stick next to your name.
>>
>>25092566
It feels humiliating to stoop to that level.

Would a science prize, an engineering prize, a mathematics prize ask for entrants to submit their pronouns? It's degenerating an art form for political reasons.
>>
>>25092571
How is it not relevant to the state of culture and literature?

There have been tons of threads posted about ethnic writers being artificially promoted after Floyd.
>>
if you declare to be a normal person they wont even bother reading the sutff you subnit
>>
>>25092611
That's not what OP is talking about.
>>
>>25092654
It is though?

One is about ethnicity, the other is about gender.

Then try to type diarrhea.

>>25092546
Yes, it's widespread. Put down xey/xem if you want a chance at winning. He/him authors just get instantly rejected.
>>
the more secular, the more gay

writers are some of the people who have the ability to influence culture so get to it
>>
>>25092772
There's nothing in his post about being denied anything because he is uses he/him pronouns. He just saw the question on a form and shat his diaper.

Fascinating

>>25092546

I remember when 4chan had the reputation of being smug, unflappable trolls. How did anons become so bitch made?
>>
>>25093007
i think you meant "unfappable"

its not trolling if the state does/sanctions it. its boot.

It's completely insane and so are you.
>>
>>25093027
Non-sequitor.

If someone doesn't want to include a pronoun, then why are you throwing a tantrum about it? That's their choice.
>>
>>25093121
nta but this is an insane thing to complain about on the most grammatically-inclined board of 4chan. like, if your privileged-ass is dooming over a necessary feature of the english language, i have to think you've never been punched
>>25093136
