        Yes, but the extremely vast majority are. I feel this is discriminating against women.

          Do you also think that saying “Happy Holidays” somehow excludes Christians?

          Increasing the size of your umbrella doesn’t discriminate against the people who are already under it. It simply invites more people to join them.

        People are afraid of saying “women”

          It’s not fear it’s just taking a bit of effort to be respectful and inclusive.

          If someone gets mad because you just said women then yeah I’d agree that’s a bit much but taking a bit of time to be inclusive shouldn’t be something you’re upset about.

          Why do you assume it’s fear that motivates people to use language that’s inclusive of trans and non-binary people?
