Is this article a joke or dead serious?
Just read the whole thing. It's dead serious.
i've never heard of this practice before, and it's fascinating.
fun fact though (since i am a fan of linquistics and typography and such): jesus wouldn't have been a capitalized pronoun user because capitalization wouldn't be invented for over a thousand years after his death. and, he would've been speaking aramaic, which never developed a bicameral script in the first place. unless of course we're to assume that he (and presumably his god dad) ghost-wrote the king james bible i guess and they wanted to update their pronouns with these newfangled upper and lower case letters.
Good point, but I have heard from many people who have Jesus tulpas and can confirm His pronouns. https://medium.com/@viridiangrail/the-memetic-proof-for-the-existence-of-gods-e5d103234fc7
I'm going to be boldly honest; I think this is pretty likely to get resistance from some people.
For certain people, in certain limited contexts, for casual inter-personal interactions between the user of these pronouns and a person who is aware of the pronouns speaking to them; yeah...I could see where your arguments hold water.
I don't personally condone misgendering anyone; particularly not when it's done knowingly and in spite or hate.
In a broader context; I think people attempting to use these pronouns might be confused by others for being something that will likely not be accepted, particularly not accepted by those who might have any particularly rigid religious mindsets. You, the reader of course, may choose not to care about this fact; but you have been warned.
Personally; I don't plan on using such pronouns myself, nor would I advise anyone else to use them unless they wish to invite additional resistance in the acceptance of their identity.
However; if these pronouns really do fit you, and they make you feel good; be aware of the possible misconceptions that can and will spring up around them. You will have to be vocal in debunking them, and they will likely be very absurd sounding to you...but from those with certain perspectives, may make sense, even if they are not logical or reasonable.
I genuinely hope people are careful and mindful; stay safe out there and if you DO use pronouns like these, I would encourage you to also be accepting of an additional standard set of pronouns as well.
Curiosity is an important part of alliance building
Amazing quote.
If you don't mind me asking, (seriously feel free to tell me to go away) how have you found transitioning in Australia?(assuming based on your instance). I'm curious to know the state of affairs here
Australia is a good place to be trans. I'd be happy to elaborate, but please use My preferred pronouns.
