Why is language so important to gender-confirming
communication?
Have you ever been misgendered? Have you ever misgendered
someone? You do not have to provide an example, but do
ruminate on the power of language to explain how we do
gender, create worlds, power inequity, and hierarchy through
the use of gendered language.
Another word for he/man language is androcentric language.
Can you provide an example of this?
Provide an example (not from the book) of marked language.
Finally, while we still have a long way to go, do you think that
it is possible that we can make positive changes toward less
violent language?
