No because male & female are descriptions that will always be around , and we all do it to describe someone.

You can't eliminate MALE & FEMALE pronouns, the person can be offended all they want. But if they're a suspect the police isn't going to know what their gender terms are right off the bat. It's about catching criminals etc. |

When theybradio in to report they have stopped a male...for nothing!!! It's not all high octane, speed chases where they shout IC 1 MALE ON THE RUN, into their radios. When they stop you, for nothing...they are instantly harassing you, so to then assume your label preference is further harassment.. So should they then be held accountable? |

I may add that the police have already been instructed to not genderise people in a memo sent to all forces.

Its not about describing someone to an officer...its about the officer assuming you, to someone else over his radio.

If you ever get asked to identify or describe a potential criminal or suspect in an incident, what are you going to say then ? .
" Well officer I can't describe their gender as I don't want to offend them" ? . |

Depends on the crime, if it's one against a large company, I will keep shtoom, quoting the fact I dknt want to offend that person. If its rape or something slightly less serious than that I will just say male, i will say, "he was a black male officer, of youthful appearance" |

If they just say male or female instead of man or woman, that'd sort it. Male and female aren't "genders", so it doesn't matter if the person identifies as something else.

So it should technically be the other way around. They could say "man" or "woman" based on presentation, they actually do NOT know if the suspect is male or female. Unless they're naked. But then I suspect "they're running down the street naked" probably serves as a good enough description. Last edited by Toy Soldier; 15-06-2021 at 10:38 PM. |
