OK fine, here's the fanfic I've been reading. It does me no good to be all weird about enjoying it, now does it?
#Senbazuru is a #fanfic of the #AssassinationClassroom Manga/#anime. I'll be honest with you: I neither read nor watched that. I stumbled upon this through some tag searching, and I am of the firm opinion that a well-written #fanfiction should stand on its own. This one does so by largely being quite loyal to canon (at least from what I've been able to gleam from TVTropes). The added character does make a difference, but it never feels like they're stealing the spotlight or are out of place.
That character, to be specific, is you. Well, Reader. It's a reader insert fic, and a quite well done one; Reader is just name-like enough to work without feeling odd, and the author's done a great job of keeping them entirely #GenderNeutral.
The main point is a romance between Reader and #Korosensei, a fellow with mysterious origins and many #tentacles that will blow up the Earth within a year, unless someone can assassinate him in time. Believe it or not, it's the wholesomest, fluffiest, quirkiest #romance ever. Have squeezable plushies at the ready -- but tissues, too! And prepare to be delightfully frustrated, because this is one hell of a slow burn.
Yes, this is an explicit fic, with #NSFW chapters. But since it's a slow burn, don't expect them all that soon. All the #lewd chapters are entirely optional; the author has made sure not to put any especially important stuff there, for the sake of younger or asexual readers. If you do decide to read them, #EnthusiasticConsent is given for all sex scenes. It's all #consentacles, if you will.

Überschrift im Weser-Kurier: '
Nein zu Gendersternchen'

DAS IST FALSCH !

Der Rat hat lediglich festgestellt: "Der Genderstern gehört nicht zum Kernbereich der deutschen Orthographie." (Ja, das stimmt)
Man werde die Entwicklung beobachten.
Das heißt: Der Rat wartet ab, welcher Gebrauch sich durchsetzen wird.

Der Rat ist nicht dazu da, politische Entscheidungen zu treffen und hat das auch dieseSmal nicht getan!

Seeing a surge in the #MaleCosmetics trend with young Japanese students embracing #Makeup as part of daily life. With #CosmeticBrands like #UNLICS and #CosmeDecorté targeting this emerging market, it's a remarkable shift in the beauty industry's approach. #GenderNeutral products are also gaining popularity. #BeautyTrends #Japan

Is there a less-clinical gender-neutral term to replace "offspring" in the sentence "Oh yes that's Jean's offspring, Chris?"

I do like this line from Ken White (@Popehat) in the footnotes:

"But right now changing statutory #language to #genderneutral terms is widely regarding as pedophilic #Marxism by the sort of serious people who dominate the country."

When you laugh inside so hard it hurts

If #Allah Has No #Gender, Why Not Refer To #God As 'She?'
When people speak about God in various #religions, the deity is typically referred to using the #masculine pronoun "He."
In #Islam, Allah is not depicted as #male or #female — Allah has no gender. Yet Allah has traditionally been referred to, and imagined by many, as a man.
Some #Muslim #women have begun to refer to Allah with #feminine or #genderneutral pronouns.

Leider gibt es keine perfekte Lösung, da es sich um einen Zielkonflikt handelt.

Keine Leute vor den Bus zu werfen, also Förderung von #Inklusion, ist mir persönlich wichtiger als das (ebenfalls wichtige) Ziel, Aufmerksamkeit auf das Thema #Gendergerechtigkeit zu lenken.

So enthält @SPBuchsatz einen Kommentar, der bittet und empfiehlt, möglichst #genderneutral zu formulieren – und nur selten(st) den #Genderstern zu nutzen.

Andere mögen anderer Ansicht sein, das ist selbstverständlich OK. :)

❤️ Zielkonflikt und Dilemma:

#Gendergerecht oder #genderneutral?

Zwei Ziele:

1. Durch Sprache keine Leute vor den Bus werfen:

Sprache soll #Inklusion nicht erschweren, sondern idealerweise Barrieren abbauen.
#Genderstern, -Doppelpunkt und Unterstrich sind aber NICHT barriere-arm:
Manch neurodiverse Leute, die es eh schwer haben, finden es schwieriger, den Text zu erfassen.

2. Durch Sprache aufmerksam machen:

Bewusst auffallen sollende Zeichen wie der Genderstern regen zum Nachdenken an.

this is just a few of the many pride flags you'll be seeing today that I had painted a while back.

Her colleague, Melanie Bhend, presented in the same #AULC2023 talk her use of gender-neutral language as a pedagogical tool in French langauge learning. Her students identify cases of gender-neutral writing in media text, and have assignments where they rewrite texts to make them gender-neutral. Absolutely brilliant.

Marilena Minoia's #AULC2023 talk presents her motivations for using the schwa for the Italian gender-neutral suffix.

She explains how schwa is ideal because it is phonetically in the middle of the vowel space and in the middle of the feminine and masculine endings.
