First to Finish/Last to Start

But I gotta tell ya, I’m really wishing people wouldn’t drag the honorific “Mx” into this debate.

There is no preexisting gender-neutral form of “Mr” or “Ms”

It has an actual pronunciation (“Mix”)

There are real life situations demanding you use an honorific; some documents I use at work for example have a place to fill it in, and I’ve been using “Mx” on them for like a year now

It’s been in the dictionary since 2017, but has history of usage going back to the 1970′s; it’s not even new

The difference is “Mx” is expanding the English language to fill in a gap, whereas “Folx” is gratuitous.

“I wanted to make people aware… guide dogs haven’t been trained in social distancing and queuing to get in a shop. If you see a guide dog heading straight for the shop door and not joining the queue, that is what they have been trained to do. They’re not being rude or intentionally queue jumping. Also, if you see them walking down the street, remember, they haven’t been trained to social distance, so it is up to us, the sighted people, to give them space. Hope that helps my many guide dog owner friends in these really difficult and challenging times.”
