Thats not just star trek. In the modern day military you do use sir when addressing a female superior as i understand it.
@cwebber

The meme kinda has a point.

Egytians, and more generally muslims, are by far some of the nicest people i ever met. I will admit their laws are oppressive and all, but they truly are caring people most of the time. The one guy that works at this hotel made me a special dinner to try to raise my spirits, he even went out of his way to track down some pasta. I cant eat even half of all this food but my god it was good.

@cwebber Well thing is while he is considered general neutral when discussing someone in the third person I dont think it would apply in a direct conversation. Like if im on the phone with someone and their voice is ambiguous I wouldnt default to he/sir. I'd probably avoid it using "you". That said im not sure there is a gender neutral sir.

Its a tricky problem I guess and like you say hard to address in the current language without making up new words, and we all know how well that goes over with gender language.

Its a shame to say you need to work on your voice and to put the burden with you, though likely that is the reality. I can only imagine how much it must also hurt CIS gendered women who have masculine voices.

@cwebber Do they do this even when they know your (new) name (Christine)? Or does it only happen when they have no indication of your intended gender?

Sadly for soem strange reason i cant watch it without it skipping even onc eit buffered due to my insanely slow internet... Sorry really wanted to check this out. Congrats again for finishing it though.

@lucifer Good to hear, thanks.

@lucifer Are they still completely unhinged in nature or did he finally start acting like a respectable human being?

@robryk Not too sure, you basically lightly boil them then soak them in salted lemon juice and some spices, then in 4 weeks you can eat them

Is Democracy Town still an abject extremist shit hole or did they get their act together yet? Last I saw they were in some trouble for posts where they were threatening to kill people that had everyone upset. Havent heard a peep since

@saitei indeed

Apparently "think of the children!" Is the current strategy to justify violating your privacy rights, its disgusting.

If you are ever in egypt i highly recommend you try the pickled lemons, they are quite nice. Im also a fan of their two most popular cheeses: roumy and domiati. #egypt #food
