I don't think a hermaphroditic chaos god is the best defense of neopronouns, but it does expose the gap present in the godless tongue (English)

call me crazy but just because there is the term goddess doesn't seem like god needs to be masculine, I'd say goddess is just a specific limited version of god as a term like hero and heroine

Yeah I can agree to that, kinda like actor/actress, but then we're kinda back to "male is the default"

I'd say male/nonbinary by default at most but still feels like you'd only need to use the females versions if you really want to call out the difference

People hating neopronouns is just more new thing = bad

Even if tumblr and Twitter users did create them, I don't see how that discounts their existence
