>They still use "he" as the default pronoun for animals even though most animals are female
And they're going to continue, so long as retarded simps keep referring to boats and shit as female by default.I hate women.
>>4833349People use "he" as the default pronoun for creatures that are undignified or empty-headed in appearance. Really makes you think
>>4833349That's just in under-gendered languages like English tho. Kewl languages use different genders for different species either based on the species's perceived masculinity/feminity or for no real reason.
>>4833349Gender =/=sexSome men are female, some women are male.
>>4833376finally some right answers on this website

>>4833357They referred to boats as female because sailors were all men and they were lonely. This way they could ride their cutie boat gf all year long

>>4833472it is dehumanizing
>another thinly veiled /pol/ thread
>>4833349English uses the generic maleFeel free to use a different language image board if this offends you
>>4833349I guess if you count things like ants and bees towards that total that primarily consists of sexually inert females.
>>4833376You really think the word gender is never used to refer to a person's biological sex?
>>4833349>he starts his memetext OP post with "they" even though most 4chanoids are male
>>4833349That is because I acknowledge the worth of animals. Ants are 'he' to me. What sweaty gon do?

>>4833376>GEN'DER, n. L. genus, from geno, gigno; Gr.to beget, or to be born; Eng. kind. Gr. a woman, a wife; Sans. gena, a wife, and genaga, a father. We have begin from the same root. See Begin and Can.>1. Properly, kind; sort.>2. A sex, male or female. Hence,>3. In grammar, a difference in words to express distinction of sex; usually a difference of termination in nouns, adjectives and participles, to express the distinction of male and female. But although this was the original design of different terminations, yet in the progress of language, other words having no relation to one sex or the other, came to have genders assigned them by custom. Words expressing males are said to be of the masculine gender; those expressing females, of the feminine gender; and in some languages, words expressing things having no sex, are of the neuter or neither gender.>GEN'DER, v.t. To beget; but engender is more generally used.>GEN'DER, v.i. To copulate; to breed. Levit. 19.
>>4833349Yeah, "he" is the default "unknown gender" pronoun in english.
>>4833349I use "he" for lizards and "she" for snakes for example. Because that's their default gender in Portuguese.This habit is hard to fight for me. Sorry
>>4833349Everyone uses "he" for all animals, besides spiders, cats, poodles and butterflies which are always called "she"
>>4833349>TheyAnd yet you assumed I'm not binary
>>4833506No. But that doesn't mean it is the same.
>>4833376>yender =/= age>some children are 60, and some seniors are 8
>>4833606genders don't exist. the concept is just sex again, but this time you can fake it. it's a verbal trick. race and flender, species and zender. you could do it with anything
>>4833349You're supposed to use it for generic animalsIf an animal has sentimental value, like a pet, then you can use he/she depending on their sex
>>4833488theyre literally animals
>>4833577looking up the definition of words in old dictionaries has shown me how the modern dictionary/definition racket has become blatantly prescriptivemarx started it, if you go back and read his works a good majority of it is him explaining to people how words ACKshually mean something different, its a fairly clever tactic that understands that its easier to get people to change their definition of a word than it is to get them to change their ideological mindset/worldview; yet after they accept the changed definition they start to change their worldview for themselves
