I mean it’s unconfortable to hear it but it’s also an entirely different term
Like if you say your tranny failed and you point at your broken down vehicle, it’ll sound pretty awkward to a lot of folks these days, but unless they don’t know it’s used unrelatedly to refer to a transmission I can’t imagine many folks are likely to think you’re trying to describe them as a lesser, invalid human on the basis of how they relate to gender.
I’d find it a bit awkward or uncomfortable but I certainly wouldn’t take offense by it.
I don’t think anyone who’s used it to refer to like a transmission or transceiver or transit van is a bad person or anything. There’s a lot of room for misunderstanding but part of communication is knowing your audience. Honestly that’s probably the biggest reason I think it’s a good thing it’s falling out of favour- there’s less room for misunderstanding
What a cutie!!
Video worked just fine for me :)
