Proper usage of pronouns edit
Please refrain from doing this. I don't know how many times this has to be said, but non-binary people like A. W. Peet, Riley J. Dennis, Kate Bornstein and millions more are just as normal as anyone else. Being non-binary is not a choice.[1][2] If you still lack information about pronouns and wikipedia policies for the same, please see Pronouns#Grammar, Pronouns#English pronouns, Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Gender identity and Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Biography#Gender_identity. Another emerging category pronouns is neopronouns and even though they are neologisms, they are recognized by dictionaries.[3][4]

- I find it hard to fathom someone being offended by using proper English pronouns instead of some made up words or forcing others to use singular they/them instead of more grammatically correct pronouns. I will refrain from editing those topics, but please understand that this is a contentious issue and not everyone agrees. 68.0.59.20 (talk) 01:34, 8 May 2022 (UTC)
- "made up words"?
- What people like you say is not surprising. These pronouns are real words that are mentioned in dictionaries. Singular they is a grammatically correct pronoun widely used since the 14 century. People who disagree are shallow, because being mentioned with incorrect pronouns hurts people's feelings. How would feel if you were addressed with incorrect pronouns? It feels like being ignored and alienated. He/she pronouns can't be used for non-binary people because they are neither male nor female. They have particular genders which lie outside the binary spectrum of genders. That being said, both gender and sex are wide-ranging biological spectrums.[1][2] Gender variance is not limited to only humans; it has also been found in animals.[3] That's right. Animals can also be transgender and/or non-binary. LGBTQ+ movements did not start only during 1950s; they have been continuing since many centuries. Gender diversity from LGBTQ+ communities is historical but also evolutionary, since genders began appearing in microorganisms called protists.[4][5][6] Wikipedia itself has articles about history of LGBTQ+:
- LGBT History
- Timeline of LGBT history, which have sources dating back to at least 9th Millenium BCE.
- Rethink your perspectives. It's never too late to be a good human ;)

Hello, I'm Blaze Wolf. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Linux Mint, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. ― Blaze WolfTalkblaze__wolf 16:48, 14 December 2023 (UTC)
