seeing as French is a gender based language I can imagine it is pretty harmful if not totally confusing
Ain't Spanish and Italian as well?
yes there are several gender based languages
All languages I am aware of are gender-based. Its just English was easier to conflate and confuse without fucking up how sentence structures were done due to it being an amalgamation of world languages...
...kinda like the world language before the tower of Babel hubris split it.
someone correct me if i'm wrong but i believe a large majority of european languages are gendered
(basque, finnish, hungarian, and english are the exceptions that come to mind)
It would be impossible to extract gender from French.
Does remind me of an old joke, how women have the remote but men have the control.
An orgasm is exclusively Male, If a women missed out, well she owns the frustration.
(Not doing justice, and doesn't translate well, but is great)
And we think it's confusing to try to be gender neutral in English. Can you imagine trying to decide if your toaster is L,G,B,T,Q,R,S without offending anyone?
The French are fiercely protective of their language and foreign influence damaging it. I can't imagine a influence more foreign to any language than woke-thought.
Changing the way people think in regard to gender-pronouns is about as damaging as it gets to language.
Especially in france where they have a board of the language to determine what French words to add or remove.
Post the full article, please. The headline is kinda misleading. The article was talking about protecting grammar rules to prevent the confusion. But, they still support the feminization of profession for the sake of gender equity. So, it is semi-based.

Double updoot for your headline.
France showing us Americans what it's like to have (fixed) gendered balls.

So at least theyre trying. Sigh. ?
So when my kids were little, I asked them, " quick, your French military, how do you greet people?"
Reply: (throw hands in the air) "We surrender!"
Oui!
Mmmmm French toast.
Is Brie gendered? Bout the only thing French I appreciate now.
All latin languages require gendered terms. There are actually no non-gendered terms in Spanish, French, Italian and Latin.
I took Latin, and there were male and female nouns, but it didn't necessarily have anything to do with the actual meanings of the nouns. For example, "agricola" is a feminine noun, but it means "farmer."
German too
