    Using “themselves” for a non-binary person or unspecified gender is grammatically incorrect.

    It’s “themself.” (Unless they’re plural.)

    Also, “Latinx” is performative white ally cringe. It’s not pronounceable in Spanish. Use “Latine.” -e is the obvious gender neutral ending.

      Ok but literally all of my Latinx friends say that they use the word Latinx, and it was popularized in South America and it is still used there frequently (though as I understand it, -u is becoming the more fashionable gender-neutral ending these days). I actually think “Latinx” is performative white ally cringe might be what’s performative cringe.

        how do they pronounce it? “latinequis?” I haven’t heard -u but I’ll take your word for it.

          I didn’t think about it, but they pronounce it like in english, /lætˈinɛks/
