all those different contexts collapsed into a single context. You modulated your tone of voice, your words, your behavior, and even your appearance to suit whatever social “context” you were in (workplace, home, school, nightclub, etc.) and then readjusted the presentation of yourself when you moved into another context. Before social media, you spoke to different “audiences” - family members, friends, colleagues, and so forth - in different ways.
etworks like Friendster, MySpace, YouTube, and, later, Facebook and Twitter were dissolving the boundaries between social groups that had long shaped personal relations and identities. I have though met many latinx people who prefer instead, while others say that it reduces the language for non-binary folks.Īlbeit one that arguably lasted for a very, very long time. It demonstrates how far we have come in just two generations. To me the fact that the WH and President Biden use these important ungenderizations is a very important step, just like the federal desegregation of schools. It is to me beautiful that the country can embrace both the latinx/hispanic population and at the same time say to these marginalized groups "we hear you, we listen to you, and we understand you." The USA is one of, if not the, most diverse country in the world with people from all over. This is problematic for a large minority of the LGBTQ+ population and many Native/Indigenous/First nations with different linguistic cultures. Some languages have unfortunate misogynistic and transphobic/monogendered built-ins.
