Okay #Spanish speakers. Given that language gender, gender identity, and gender expression are their own separate things (noting that trans people have always existed), how do you decide which gender to go with during a communication? (If you haven’t adopted gender-neutral language.)
A phrase like “bienvenides a todes” is easy enough, though I’m imagining many people today use words like mujer and hombre for people the haven’t met. Probably not okay. Even if…

some girls and women are fine with being lumped in as “amigos” or “empleados”, we know that social gender is more complex than this. At the same time I imagine that gender-neutral language for people might not always work (yet). For ex, do we have a neutral word for “parent”? “The”? I wonder how we are doing to make sure all people feel respected and included because this matters. My focus remains on the first question, tho.
