I wanna point out that x is pronounced as e. You can use the e as gender neutral too, but x is more universal because not everyone agrees to use the e, some use the i. https://twitter.com/GURENSATANIST/status/1289024147083984901
I didn't consider the struggle it may cause neurodivergent people though, so I'll give it some thought on it lol I just really don't like when ppl come to speak in my behalf on this matter because I've fought a lot to have access to a gender neutral spanish
It felt more like an attack than a way to explain in short words why not use it, I could've phrased some things way better than this (literally "writing things as latinx makes neurodivergent people struggle a lot" instead of starting with "STOP using latinx STOP!"
ofc I'm not a dick and won't be like "no❤️" because I also use latinE so yeah, but yknow, don't speak from all of latam when ur just from one country that also happens to be the only one that does not use spanish, also if you wanted to explain it you should've done it in spanish
I do not see the reason in explaining a struggle for latin americans who speak spanish in english tbh but yeah most of the thread is correct the phrasing is very :/ but still right.
saying its *wrong* and repeatedly saying to stop is what made me very :/ about this whole thread. It's not wrong, I'd say it's not the best way, but not straight up wrong. ugh it's just a lot of feelings in this thread I don't like
