Glad to see the Navy is focused on the big issues!

It was bad enough when President Biden got thirteen service members killed because of his stupidity in Afghanistan, but we look so pathetically weak in the eyes of the enemy... This crap needs to stop!

From the article:

The official training video is meant to emphasize "the importance of using correct pronouns as well as polite etiquette when you may not be sure of someone's pronouns," according to the Navy, which late last month published the video online. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service touts the video as an "official U.S. Navy video" posted by Air Force staff sergeant John Vannucci.

The nearly four-minute Navy video emphasizes how members can create "a safe space" for their colleagues by using "inclusive language" that signals they are "allies" who "accept everybody." Service members must take these steps to ensure they do not "misgender someone." The Navy also warns staff against pressuring an individual to disclose his or her gender pronouns, saying that colleagues may still be in "the process of discovery" and not yet ready to provide this information.

Well, if you're a big man, you go stop it instead of sitting in a chair complaining.

Maybe a lack of that is more of a problem than inclusive language.

I plan to do my part, on November 8, 2022 and November 5, 2024, with my vote to remove every Progressive Democrat from Federal office!

It’s less about inclusion and more about forcing people to change their perceptions and ways of speaking to cater to whatever you want to be called at any given moment which is kind of narcissistic.

So if you use the wrong pronoun are you "the enemy" and not an "ally" ??

They are forcing people to play "make believe"

Do it or you will be punished.

Okay...I can do that too...so can transgendered people...anyone who can lift a pen or pull a lever, basically. Still not seeing how that's more macho (I think that's the concern you expressed in your OP?) but I'll be doing my part too. In my way.
