When you read something and think... dot dot dot...

Ladies and Gentleman is pretty inclusive.. I mean... everyone is a man or a woman scientifically.

Even transgenders identify with one of the above, even if society has a different view.

Seems excessive to me, but whatever. As long as places/ people whom don't ditch 'Ladies and Gentleman' don't start getting demonised.
 
It annoys me because this attitude will now propagate outside of London to other areas where we aren't complete pansys.
 
I'm glad someone posted this! I read it earlier and honestly wonder what this world is coming too! Regardless of LGBT, you're still going to be a binary gender and this is absolutely crazy! You are not born with no gender so get the **** over it - Ladies and Gentlemen covers everyone! EVERYONE!!!!
 
Some people need to get over themselves. Professional offense takers really annoy me. Constantly whining over trivial nonsense.
 
I've actually just made a complaint regarding that site

"London Underground staff have been told to say "hello everyone" in an effort to become more gender-neutral."

Using the term gender upsets me greatly. What about people who have no gender?

:edit: I'm upset with myself now! What about things who don't associate themselves with being a person?

STOP LABELING PEOPLE!

:edit: argh, I mean things STOP LABELING THINGS!

People whinging that Ladies and Gentlemen is offensive, or people whining about a simple change to the greeting? :D

It won't be long before your working environment is rainbow coloured and referring to anyone in a term they wish not to be referred as will be grounds for disciplinary.

Just trivial whining in general. Be honest, It's boring and annoying. Whine about war, death, famine, religion, politics etc. but please, please, please don't whine about this crap.

This bothers you why, exactly?

It's just an announcement.

I think it's because this kind of insanity has been slowly creeping in over time... "oh why do you care about an announcement?"

It's not the one isolated incident but the overall ******** adding up. This change is just another to the already growing list of stupid things.

They just need to knock it off already....

Exactly.

Give it time.
 
next up: term "everyone" needs to be changed to be inclusive of people with multiple personalties who don't identify as a singular individuals

announcement changed to simply "hello"

then it gets changed again to "hi" because the word "hello" contains the word "hell" in it and is deemed to be offensive to people who's religions don't feature hell

then it gets changed again to "greetings" because "hi" is deemed too informal

I was going to type something with meaning but hfklshkj\fh\skljfhklj\gjhgkjhf\s feels a lot better when I read about this utter garbage

Gender from biology. Everything else is just personality regardless of if we think that is choice or genetics. And to be honest, stop being offended and expecting wider society to just adopt things just because....

My daughter fell out with me the other night because she gets all this from school and the net. She couldn't understand why I didn't want to listen to someone on youtube going on about being non-binary. Everyone should feel free to do what they want which means I am free to have no regard at all for this PC drivel
