The virtual school says its hands are tied due to Florida’s “don’t say gay” law. However, the teacher has lodged a complaint against it.

The point is that the teacher is non binary and forced to choose an honorific. They wanted to use a neologism because there isn’t an established term and they were fired because of bigotry. It doesn’t really matter if the term makes sense to you or anyone else, it was their choice.
Your comments reek of the same smug shittiness of people who throw a fit about they\them pronouns not being “grammatically correct” when singular they has been in use for ages.
Non binary people exist, and if they are required by their job to use a formal title, they should have one that recognizes who they are.
Your knee-jerk reaction is that any criticism of the word is a criticism of non-binary people. I explicitly made a point to explain that’s not the case. And I used “they” in my first comment, so I have no idea where you’re coming from.
Treating any discussion as black and white and immediately becoming defensive isn’t helping as much as you think.
There are plenty of titles they could use. The issue is this school rejected those other titles too, and that’s not right.
You sound like you’re the type of person who gets offended for other people when in fact, those other people aren’t offended in the first place. I wish I could downvote you more than once
I don’t want to send me kids to a school where the teachers intentionally try to impose their made up beliefs on them. Is it too much to ask for teachers to stick to the subjects they are supposed to teach?
Their comment doesn’t read this way at all. You’re just arguing past them.
Lol, you westerners
Or should I say, westernxs
