sexisim and the Divine

[Silverluna]

Ever notice how Gods and Goddess are like dude and dudette? somepeople hate that ..they think its sexist to have two seperate named reflecting their gender. I personally don't care by maybe you do.

Why stop there...if you know of some quirky little instances like this ...please be a dear (genderless) and post them!!

Do you mean like waiter and waitress? We often use waitron instead (I don't like server which is too close to servant).

How about...waitrix?


Ehehehe, I crack me up.

server?

that's what we use....i mean its not servant...but its not sexed.


Thanks for being dears....(not deer)

I called female waiters waiters. I call female actors actors. There’s nothing inherently male in the word ‘waiter’ it means one who waits on you.

The word god isn’t inherently male either, in the western world's Judaic tradition though we’re used to thinking of God as male, therefore, god is male. It comes from gheu, which means to call or invoke.
