I don't see it as that confusing, since at least 'they' is a nice generic pronoun for anyone whether they are a man or a woman, and even if you get a sparklygenderwoo fucktard who demands you use their specific neopronoun, even then 'they' is so generic and used by so many enbys/trans people that no one could blame you for using it because any reasonable person would be able to see you at least tried to be respectful of them and it's not your fault, and in an HR position the battle becomes "this person truly made an honest attempt to be respectful' vs. 'this person is whining loudest'.

Yeah that seems like it is the going to be the general trend. Most people who actually have work to do probably can't be asked to keep everyone's individual pronouns straight and you can't simply say fuck that noise I'm going to just use he and she since you'll be painted as a transgressor by the opportunists out for their pound of flesh.

So the solution? Just use they for everyone. I've used they as a non-specific pronoun for awhile now avoiding such clumsy constructions like "he/she" "he and she". I do miss the days when I could just right he and it was understood that it applied to everyone including women because nobody would even think that excluding women from whatever it was was even on the table. But roll in the feminist shit stirrers with apparently little real work to do getting their panties in a bunch because the HR memo says "If a night watchman gets sick he should call his boss at his earliest convenience" instead of "if a night watchperson of indeterminate gender gets sick or has his or her period he should call his or her supervisor at his or her earliest convenience"

Of course we can both play this game.

"this person truly made an honest attempt to be respectful' vs. 'this person is whining loudest'.

Excuse me but the gendered term "person" contains the oppressive male patriarchal term "son" please consider using instead.

Well, ultimately that ties to the biggest issue in these cases, since this will still lose for the person who truly made an honest attempt to be respectful, because HR workers will always defer to what's best for themselves over what's right or best for the company...and ultimately, ruling in favor of the special sparklywoo person is best for the HR director:

Sparklypoo is more likely to file a lawsuit against the company if you don't give them their way than the person who made an honest attempt did.

WHEN (not if) they file a lawsuit, the people in power at the company will invariably just say "cut the freak a check and fire whoever made them momentarily sad before their whining affects our stock prices and we lose money", and honest attempt, their boss, and anyone else who stood in their way's head will roll.

The HR person will know this and give Sparklypoo their way simply because that way they "probably" (a forlorn hope, Sparklypoo will name anyone who doesn't bow down to them, and while their head is down there suck their ladydick as well) won't be mentioned in the lawsuit and they likely keep their job personally.

"But what if honest mistake files a counter-lawsuit if they get fired for this for making an honest attempt?" In that case, HR director is fucked no matter what they do...but they'll still defer to Sparklypoo in the tie (honest attempt will be seen as the villain who's genociding a poor, poor trans baby when they made their lawsuit and the court of woke opinion will eviscerate them. If the HR director is GOING to be fired no matter what they do, they defer to honest attempt, no HR division in the world will touch them, but if they defer to Sparklypoo, then some other HR division will see them as the tragic widdle trooper who only wanted to give equality to a poor, poor trans baby and the big mean Trump supporting mean cis mean white mean straight mean men decided to be mean and crucify the person for their fight for equality because they're mean, and every single HR division in the world will fight each other to hire this person with a big promotion and a big fat raise...hell, they might be able to quit the HR grind for good and get into the victimhood grift!

This is why we need to embrace cancel culture on the right. Destroy woke brands. Destroy DEI. Destroy jewish power. No more tolerance
