Do you say, Transgender? You do? STOP IT

If you keep on using the language of  the sexual revolutionaries you will, eventually, come to think like them.  You probably do not believe that but that is the way it works.

Politics and the English Language By George Orwell

Most people who bother with the matter at all would admit that the English language is in a bad way, but it is generally assumed that we cannot by conscious action do anything about it. Our civilization is decadent and our language — so the argument runs — must inevitably share in the general collapse. It follows that any struggle against the abuse of language is a sentimental archaism, like preferring candles to electric light or hansom cabs to aeroplanes. Underneath this lies the half-conscious belief that language is a natural growth and not an instrument which we shape for our own purposes.

Now, it is clear that the decline of a language must ultimately have political and economic causes: it is not due simply to the bad influence of this or that individual writer. But an effect can become a cause, reinforcing the original cause and producing the same effect in an intensified form, and so on indefinitely. A man may take to drink because he feels himself to be a failure, and then fail all the more completely because he drinks. It is rather the same thing that is happening to the English language. It becomes ugly and inaccurate because our thoughts are foolish, but the slovenliness of our language makes it easier for us to have foolish thoughts. The point is that the process is reversible. Modern English, especially written English, is full of bad habits which spread by imitation and which can be avoided if one is willing to take the necessary trouble. If one gets rid of these habits one can think more clearly, and to think clearly is a necessary first step toward political regeneration: so that the fight against bad English is not frivolous and is not the exclusive concern of professional writers. 

Below is an ngram chart from Google which illustrates just how increasingly popular this insane word, transgender, has become and you, dear reader, are prolly saying this word now.

                         STOP IT!!!!

Do not let revolutionaries lead you around by your intellectual nose for they are determined to cultivate your mind so that a thousand revolutionary thoughts may bloom there.

O, and Raider Fan just cited this word, transgender, but you can access the ngarm charts and substitute any other revolutionary neologism you find irksome.

The point is, there is no such reality as, transgender; there are but two sexes - male and female. 

PERIOD.

So, when it comes to you speaking the language of the revolutionaries;

STOP IT!!!!
