That's an interesting point, Juniper. This new gender-neutral language fad seems to not apply to men. Women now get referred to by their body parts or bodily functions, yet it seems like men continue to be called men. Is that the case? Can any testicle-havers weigh in?

I like things to be simplified. If somebody says 'Call me Sheila' I will do that, no problem. If they think I'm a homophobe because I won't have sex with a guy... that's an opinion.
I don't feel like there is much call for alarm on these questions. Note that the word 'much' is there. As with J. Peterson's initial fears there are things to keep your eyes open on, and this is what the letter in Harpers was about (not cancel culture IMO)... making sure to keep the dialogue open.
There are always things to watch and be concerned over but they can/do come up rarely and shouldn't dominate the mainstream discussion.
