Navy Pronoun Training

U.S. Navy Releases Video Training Sailors to Use ‘Right’ Pronouns, Not ‘Misgender’ Colleagues

JOSHUA KLEIN

A newly-released Navy training video teaches sailors to use the “right” pronouns, “show that we’re allies,” and create “a safe space for everybody,” while instructing service members on how to proceed after having “misgendered” someone.

The official U.S. Navy video posted by Air Force Staff Sergeant John Vannucci, according to The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service (DVIDS), begins with two rainbow-clad hosts — both Navy civilians — introducing their personal pronouns and announcing they are there “to talk about pronouns.”

“Using the right pronouns is a really simple way to affirm someone’s identity,” one host says. “It is a signal of acceptance and respect.”

In order to “go about creating a safe space for everybody,” the host suggests using “inclusive language.”

“Instead of saying something like, ‘Hey, guys,’ you can say, ‘Hey, everyone,’ or, ‘Hey, team,’” he says.

Is Taiwan a safe space? Inquiring people want to know.

Especially on Taiwan.

Egads, The NOW Woke NAVY sure has changed since I was in 1963-1967

HT3

I can remember an inclusive, non-geneder specific term that was used often in my day (’83-’87).
“Hey, shit-bird…get your ass over here and do X, Y, and Z”
See how respectful that is.

jeff LPH 3 63-66

Your AY fukin diddley bop right about that. Amazing how I remembered that after all these years.

Berliner

1SG at Ft Drum used the same pronoun for everyone 0-1 and below… Come HERE DICK!  😷

During the Cold War years it stood for “Dedicated Infantry Communist Killer” and was meant as a compliment!

Hey guys, I no longer have faith in the “”leadership”” of this nation.

Is there a form I need to fill out to withdraw consent to be governed, or do I just wait on the G-[wunderkinders] to Randy Weaver my dog(s), kid and wife?

See you fcukers in the gulag!

I get the top bunk!

Only way I’d make it to the Gulag, -Dog, is when my bloodless body is hungup on display as a lesson to the ones that Rose up, Resisted, Rebeled, Revolted. “If we are to die today, then let us die as men.”

Patrick Clebourne predicted this. Raphael Semmes weeps.

Let us make it simple for the entire
US Navy:

Your pronouns are Shipmate/Shipmates.

There. We just saved the taxpayers millions by avoiding ridiculously useless training.

Anchors Aweigh.

Oh, sure, just discriminate against people not on a ship! How dare you?! /s

I broadly support diversity – it’s a noble goal, and helpful in situations when everyone is competent and contributing. But I don’t give a damn what people call me as long as they do their job and advance the mission. If you can’t handle someone getting your name or pronoun wrong, incoming fire is going to be an eye-opener for sure.

PNW ATC

Well as an Airdale You can use Jetmate or Hanger Buddy as a suitable substitute.

Well, now that we think about it…

Is Popeye now considered Politically Incorrect?

Can we still call him Popeye…or is that mocking his facial uniqueness?

This is Gonna backfire…You just watch with recruitment…

LC, what do you think? Anonymous provided feedback..

I think AW1Ed prefers Swabbie anyday versus Goose, Ice, Maverick, Volleyball, Danger Zone…(Where is my Partner In Crime, KoB…).

Last…Is Grammar/English structure taught in school anyone? I asked some younger kids about pronouns…and some looked at me and asked “What is a Pronoun..”

I thought they were messing with me.

Nope..They werent…

Pronouns get paid.

ninja, if you really want to fly into that danger zone with our beloved AW1Ed (GABN), have him lose that lovin’ feelin’, go all maverick wanting to cook your goose, and hit you with a volleyball made of ice, man…just refer to him as Kid Squid (ht2 to Ol’ Poe).

Oh gawd…the only person I have ever heard us the term ‘Shipmate’ is the CMC.
Hey, Shipmate…you got time to lean you got time to clean.
Hey, Shipmate…is that a regulation haircut? No liberty until it is.
Hey, Shipmate…there’s a pregnant girl on the quarterdeck asking for you
That term has negative connotations in my book

Ranks right up there with hearing the CSM say “C’mere, Soldier…”

Not to mention “Troop” or the infamously sarcastic “He-ro!” too.

We miss the days when Cigarettes came with our C-Rats…😉

Just messin with you…

Some things are TOO extreme…I mean STUPID..

Quit using the Military for SOCIAL EXPERIMENTS…

We Love Our DD214s….

I prefer the era of, don’t tell and we won’t boot you out. But, I am old and those days are gone. We all have to be inclusive now while setting exclusive standards for a few. It’s all upside down. Just serve to the best of one’s ability and keep your sexual preferences to yourself. Your name, your rank, or your position are all the pronouns needed.

AZRobert

The only pronouns that matter for safety are Marx’s, Mao’s and Muslims, as they will rob, rape and slit the throat of whoever gives them quarters. And that’s the Truth of History.

The Fullness of the Gentiles has to be right around the corner, keep eyes open!

AW1Ed wrote “My Navy Is Broken”.

Yep.

So is the Army via West Point:

Because, you know the deal:

Why would anyone with options in life join today’s military? Horrible leadership both political and military, woke bullshit and shitty pay. I can’t imagine any responsible parent supporting their kids joining this shit show.

PNW ATC

How about “Shipmate”? Always worked in the past.

When an angry “hey shipmate” was yelled everyone in hearing would flinch.

SFC D

Big Navy might want to think more about teaching young Ensigns and JayGees basic navigation and how to avoid making big dents in a large piece of floating steel.

USAF_Rigger

This is the dumbest thing I believe I’ve ever heard of. I for one don’t give a damn about someone’s preferred pronoun. I’m glad I’m not in the military anymore. I’d lose my ever lovin’ shit on someone and be in the hoosegow if someone said my preferred pronoun was something stupid. I guess I’m just too old and set in my ways.

poetrooper

“I guess I’m just too old and set in my ways.”

Nope, you’re just possessed of too much common sense…

ChipNASA

Aerial Port Senior says, “What’s up my Rigger?”
 😮  😂 
My pronouns are “Fucker” and I’m going to say “HEY FUCKER!!” and if you ain’t getting laid, ergo, not a “Fucker”, then that’s a personal problem and you’re getting paid so do something about it.
Fuckers.
See, it works SO well.

In my class at Ranger School, the company 1SG, MSG Brinker, had special pronouns for us, so he wouldn’t have to remember or say our names. They were: Ragbag, shitbird, and dummy.

Hey, both gender neutral and written in the Army style!comment image

“THEY” are fucktards who came up with this idea.

I’m gonna go home after work, pour myself a Guinness, and kiss my DD-214.

I would have been out after my only four-year obligation if the Army was doing this kind of shit back in my day.

Animal

I am not an ally.

Topgoz

What if I don’t want to “affirm their identity?” What if I am offended by their made-up gender? Does my being offended cancel their being offended? Do we get to agree to disagree like adults so I can go back to calling you F**kstick, Sh*tforbrains, Dumbas*, or similar term of endearment?

SgtBob

TG: Good point. To the pronouns: I do not recognize your argument.

Wireman611

George V

More senior Navy personnel, when sitting at the O or Enlisted club will reminisce about the good old days when Captain’s Mast was for offenses like drunk and disorderly, missing a watch, or sluffing off on the job, instead of “Sir, xhe mis-pronouned meeee!!!!”

Come to think of it, the senior personnel will be probably be the ones at Captain’s Mast for mis-pronouning a seama…seawom… seaperson? seabody?

President Elect Toxic Deplorable Racist SAH Neande

With the “makeup” of the current Navy, “semen” would be correct.

Joined the Navy to ride the Waves but Davy Jones got in your locker….ouch!

Someone had to say it…

Those fan rooms while underway is what did it. Betcha.

Query: Will there be a competition to see which service has the most genders?

I think I’ll have my DD-214 bronzed. What a worthless fucking canoe club the Navy has become.

As Poe pointed out in a thread yesterday, that twink in the rainbow pullover is not Navy. He’s a DoD civilian engineer at Naval Underwater Warfare Center at Newport.

True. Jony appears to like having seaman all over at work.

So, you are saying that he (did Hack just misgender him ?) gets paid to go down?

Everyone is laughing about how poorly Russia is doing in the Ukraine

My DD214 is my Shepherd
I shall not want.
It maketh me to lay down in green pastures
It leadeth me me beside the still waters.
It restoreth my soul
It leadeth me in the paths of RIGHTEOUSNESS for my country’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil.
For thou art with me
And I am the baddest mo’fo” in the valley.
Thy M16 and thy M885 they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table with MREs and T-Rats before me in the presence of my enemies.
Thou annointest my head with beer.
My shot cup runnest over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of the DD214 forever.

So mote it be, AMEN!

Not there yet, but appreciate.

HORSE SHIT!!!

I just called everyone “Fuckers”. It was gender neutral. Apparently I was a decade ahead of the power curve.

“Hey Fuckers…yall had best field day the workspaces before I skull fuck each and every one of you.”

Instead of saying something like, ‘Hey, guys,’ you can say, ‘Hey, everyone,’ or, ‘Hey, team,’” he says.

“Hey, Turds”.

Wait until “gender-fluid” folk get fasionable.

You gotta see Angry Cop’s take on it. What if I misgender someone? “Not if you use their rank.” ROTFL

Stacy0311

Squid is gender neutral.
Don’t know if it will replace “Hey you” and “Fucker” as official pronouns. But it’s got to be better than pier queer
