Luftschlosseule Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Huhu! I am asking myself if I ever filled out that form. I think I just appeared and hoped it would work out fine. Just assemble, you know? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Luftschlosseule Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 But I want to learn to juggle. I am told it's fairly easy and if you start out in earnest, you can do it in one evening so you have the groundworks manageable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Luftschlosseule Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Guys, guys! Currently they're adapting Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman to a TV series and now Neil said that Pollution of the apocalyptic horsemen is agender! Look! Not a role model as such, but awesome nonetheless! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shoggoth Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Well that's hella rad! Pollution always was my fave horseperson. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Luftschlosseule Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I dunno, "apocalyptic horsemen" sounds like the name of the gang, feels non-gendered, but... not my native language. : 'D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andiamo Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Good Omens is one of my favorite books. I didn't even know that they were making it into a TV series, but I have to see that! And having an agender character (even if it's Pollution)? That's so much more than I could have hoped for. This actually made my day so much better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Finn. Posted November 11, 2017 Share Posted November 11, 2017 I'm agender since 5 minutes ago. And now I'm like "what do I do with this?" It feels like I need to take advantage of this somehow but in the end... there's nothing to do =) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Macallion Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Hi everyone, I'm pretty new. Just found this forum a few days ago. I'm pretty neutral most of the time and have no preference for pronouns. I once told my friends they could call me the grand high mushroom for all I cared. Most people use female pronouns since that's my physical gender, but I really don't mind. I'm demi(-hetero? I think?)sexual. Still working on the romantic side, but right now I'm thinking potentially panromantic? So far has only been men but who knows? I have not read Good Omens yet. I've been planning to start reading both authors and have not quite got around to it yet. I read a very early Pratchett years ago, with a sort of proto-discworld. I forget the name, sadly. One day I will find it again. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Luftschlosseule Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Welcome! (: And sadly, it seems it will take till 2019 till we get Good Omens as series, so you'll have enough time to read the book beforehand. It's really fun! (: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waffle house Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 hellooooo everyone! my name's Leah, i've been on AVEN for a couple years now but only started id'ing as genderflux prettttty recently, though i've questioned for a while! i'm AFAB and while there are times that i feel fem, most of the time i don't feel a real connection with gender at all. it's like when i try to reach for a gender, there's nothing there. so that... fits under "agender", i'm pretty sure. right...? at least i think it does lol. so i thought i'd pop into this thread and say hi! *waves* 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's a great play! I actually wrote an essay on it last semester, despite the fact that we didn't read it in that class. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tintenfeder Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Talking of coming from another country, how do you deal with pronouns in German/a language without gender neutral pronouns? I've talked about that the last few days with a friend, but we haven't found a solution. Any thoughts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm taking the class this coming semester, so I don't know exactly what will happen, but I did email a bit with the teacher. For Spanish specifically she suggested using no pronouns (just my name) and the "neutral" form of things (it's kind of more masculine than neutral, but that doesn't bother me too much).

I've talked about that the last few days with a friend, but we haven't found a solution. Any thoughts? I usually default back to the masculine form since this is the more neutral one, generally. But of course, I don't know if you're/whoever is comfortable with that. And I talked with my best friend about it, so she uses pronouns less and more often my name instead.
