It's Latino and Latina merged into a single word , and then sprinkled with all the other 62 genders.

Yeah, it was meant to be "inclusive" to Latinos who don't "identify" as male or female, but rather as "non binary". The way I liked seeing Latino and Latina merged was around briefly (2005-2008ish) : [email protected] I wish that had caught on, if we must have a merger word.

Somebody tell them the entire Spanish language is gendered. It's binary.

There are 64 genders? That means men are better than 63 genders! BOYS BOYS BOYS! (guns firing)

It's a psychopathic way to spit on the culture and heritage of the not-small-amount of Latin countries and hundreds of millions of Latin language speakers.

My best guess is soft core porn targetting Latinos. Steamier than a standard telenovela but not as explicit as latinxxx. More Red Shoe Diaries but not full blown donkey show.

I work for a large Fortune 500 that has bi-weekly town hall conferences, and let me tell you, it flies out side of university. I am part Hispanic and it drives me nuts..

File a complaint calling it offensive

Some white lady in HR will remind them why it’s not offensive and that they should be offended at the gendered version of the term instead.

Just cause some high up HR retards are using the word doesn't mean people actually like it. You are hispanic and you don't like it... nuff said. You are the norm, from all I've seen.

It just sounds so gay to see all these professionals using a made up word.

Pew research recently published extensive survey data showing just how out of touch the latinx phrase is. Observed corporate HR start using it in communications and shared in confidence the survey data with one of their team members. They're not using it in communication anymore.

The link can be useful data driven argument for chemotherapy, dependent on how far the cancer has spread in the organization.

Your HR is wrong. LatinX was invented by americans. It's not a real word in Spanish. The Royal Spanish Academy(i.e the global regulator of the Spanish language and the basis of what Spanish speakers are taught in school), rejected the use of latinx. It is not a word. It's a degenerate liberal made up word. https://www.clarin.com/sociedad/todes-real-academia-espanola-puso-freno-lenguaje-inclusivo_0_Z7Xon96OQ.html

Lmao ask about fillipinos how they feel about people trying to extend it to fillipinx. They don't even have a gendered term (as in almost no one from the Philippines uses fillipina) and it is literally a case of western whites just extending a term from other similar brown people (that also don't like the term) into them.

FYI never say latinx unless you're mocking people who say latinx. We hate that shit. It's not a real word. If a liberal says "muh professor said that" you can remind them that the Royal Spanish Academy, which guides the standards of the language and is the basis of all Spanish grammar taught around the world, considered & rejected the use of LatinX.
