I'm assuming (alex in mainhattan) is not from the US (or UK) and therefore the advances in this culturally over the past several years may have passed him by. I'm not sure how other countries are addressing this evolution.

German, I think?

The visibility of the issue is definitely maximal in the anglosphere and, I suppose, areas that have always been on the LGBTQ forefront like Scandinavia (see "hen"). Language creativity and flexibility aside, there's bound to be slower and different uptake given levels of conservatism / liberality in politics and culture. For example, there's still heavy resistance to the use of inclusive language in gendered French, so there's a long way to go to accept pronouns such as iel in, say, the work sphere. Not that acceptability of the pronoun is a measure for the rest.

To Branwell: I won't dignify "dogwhistle transphobia" but sorry if my comment seemed insensitive and thank you for your offer.

one year passes...

Anyone listened to this new album? It's good! Wider range of beats and guests than prior, to good effect.
