To be fair English has needlessly gendered words as well.
Could you please give some examples?
In those 'Romance' languages, there's different forms of "the" depending on gender - "la", "el", and so on. English just has the neutral "the", and stuff like doors and desks and pencils aren't gendered. Neither's pizza or pasta.
I suppose vehicles are often referred to as "she", for some stupid reason; is that what you're talking about?

Things like waiter/waitress and actor/actress exist.

Oh, you're talking about occupations; in that regard, I don't see the harm in it, as men and women are inherently different, and using different titles makes it easier to distinguish between them in the same role.
It's also why men and women should wear different clothes, IMO, to distinguish between them.

Thats not what he meant at all
In french for example, chair is female, sofa is male
Eh, I did ask for what he meant, and he did give valid examples, so...
Out of curiosity, you know doormats? How are those things gendered?

Just to specify, we don't have a word equivalent to "it"
Well, we do have some, but using them with verbs just doesn't sounds right most of the time...

It is a truth universally acknowledged,that the first thing people do when presented with a new creative medium is to construct a dong.

So this thing has 1027 pages; I wonder, is there a limit on the number of pages a thread can have?
Shouldn't be a big deal for current computers to handle unlimited (yes, there factually is a limit with the memory) entries.
3DS NOOB PARADISE currently has more replies.
