All Woke Up: New pronouns for 'cat people'

Empower Wisconsin | Feb. 18, 2022

The painfully Woke are taking “cat people” to a whole new weird level in the latest battle over pronouns.

Enter “catgender.” That’s when someone so strongly identifies with cats or “other felines” or “may experience delusions relating to being a cat” they apparently need a special pronoun.

Instead of getting Mr. or Mrs. Kitty the kind of intense psychiatric help they require, Woke World demands we now use the made-up pronouns “nya/nyan.” The latter is the Japanese word for “meow.”

This cat fancy is part of the University of Bristol’s guidance to its staff on “using pronouns at work,” according to the College Fix. Beyond the basics, she/her, he/him, and the old Woke they/them, are the so-called “neopronouns.”

Neopronouns, according to to The Telegraph, are defined as “third-person pronouns that are not officially recognised in the language they are used in.” Like “Ze/Zir/Zirs,” for example. (Somebody somewhere is smoking a lot of pot — or catnip — and laughing hysterically as he makes up new pronouns for liberals to fall all over).

The United Kingdom university’s guide also includes “emojiself pronouns,” icons which “represent gender in written and spoken conversation.”

According to the Telegraph, Bristol’s guide says that if staff make a mistake by using the wrong pronoun, “it is important not to become defensive or make a big deal out of it. Simply thank the person for correcting you, apologise swiftly, and use the correct pronouns going forward”.

The guide urges lecturers to be “proactive” by stating their pronouns voluntarily at the start of conversations and meetings, to create a normal culture on campus that avoids needing to ask one’s pronouns or making assumptions based on looks.

And make sure to keep plenty of balls of yarn and shiny objects on hand for the kitty crowd. They love that stuff.

Good Lord. Where’s Bob Barker when we need him. It may be time to spay and neuter the Woke.
