Or, you know. Just Bürger, the generic masculinum. That all-inclusive. And it worked for a long time. It's only because some snowflakes thought they needed something to complain about that we're having this whole debate.
No it's not and there's scientific evidence. Studies have shown that female children will name career paths as their dream job less often if only the male version is shown to them, presumably because they think it's not an option for them, as it's perceived to be only possible for males to follow that path. Explicitly mentioning both genders suddenly makes girls also want to become doctors.
You might not like it, but there's enough evidence to show that it has merit.
"scientific evidence".
Just like the 'scientific evidence' that, for whatever reason, in countries where women are way less free than in the west, many more women go into STEM?
According to https://de.statista.com/statistik/daten/studie/200758/umfrage/entwicklung-der-anzahl-der-medizinstudenten/ since at least 2010 there are way many more women studying medicine than men.
You might not like it, but just because it's "Die" Sonne And "Der" Mond, That Does not suddenly mean that the moon is male and the sun is female, just how "Der Schüler" Does not imply that they are male or female.
This whole discussion about grammatical gender is stupid and biased as fuck by "researchers" who come to the conclusion they want to come to. I work in academia myself, I know how much bullshit gets pushed through.
Don't get me wrong, I support anyone being able to do whatever they want. Women can do engineering just as much as men can, same for medicine and everything else. The literal only upside that men have is - on average - higher physical strength. And that just means that a higher percentage of men is strong enough to do certain physical job than the percentage of women. Doesn't mean the women strong enough to do that job do it any worse than men.
Statista is a website that steals data from everywhere, it's not a source as they don't do any research.
Der bre benutzt einfach "snowflakes" unironisch, was ist das, 2016?
Ja, Kumpel * in dud * in bro* sephine. Diese ganzen Gendersternverherrlicher innen brauchen einfach etwas worüber sie innen sich aufregen *innen könn *innen.
Ausserdem, bro *sephine, hast du mein Profil soweit durchgeschaut dass du rausgefunden hast dass ich männlich bin, oder hast du gerade mein Gender assumiert? Hier hättest du, um deinen eigenen Standards zu entsprechen, ein Genderneutrales Pronomen verwenden sollen, Bro *sephine.
Gerade nachgeschaut. In meinem Profil steht überhaupt nichts zu meinem Gender. Du hast also zwangsweise einfach mal so angenommen, dass ich ein Mann bin. Stimmt das mit deiner Ideologie überein?
Bro ist mir egal ob du den Stern nutzt oder nicht, du bist nur bissl cringe im Internet unterwegs und ich wollte mich drüber lustig machen.
Dass du da nen ganzen Paragrafen schreiben musstest, ist schon telling ne
women right? so annoying...
I wouldn't mind a generic feminimum just as I don't mind a generic masculinum. Grammatical gender doesn't have anything to do with actual gender. It's just a quirk of the language.
