    Greetings BRAWLERS,

    ever since the election of Donald Trump there has been a wave of sexism, hate, and misogyny all over the U.S., and more importantly, the world. Tens to hundreds of high school dropouts with crew cuts and biceps are goose stepping all over the liberal center and are threatening the newly established Order of Gayness that has taken the country by storm.

    This cannot continue. Indeed, as our lord and savior Papa Franku once said, "It's time to stop." And we can stop it. Yes, I know Brawl isn't the most popular outlet for countering hate - but all movements start small.

    We can start countering hate, and bringing acceptance and goodness back to Brawl and to the world, right now. How? By calling people by their correct gender pronoun.

    We've all had that awkward moment where you're talking to someone and you say "Lisa, you're a great guy!" and they're like "excuse you, I identify as a pandemisexual transqueer woman and calling me a 'guy' is very offensive to me". Of course, this may sound funny to the casual observer but such interactions are not only deeply hurtful for the offended but unbelievably awkward for the offendee.

    This cannot continue any longer

    So I propose a question for all present and future staff applicants (as they represent this great community) to answer:

    What are your pronouns?

    Thank you for your time and for considering this essential, and completely memeworthy proposal

    -Admiral

    Could this be an optional question? What if people don't know, or are uncomfortable telling people?

    If you are uncomfortable sharing your pronouns you are doing life wrong

    Uhm I dont like how you just called me a 'Brawler', it's really offensive, what if I identify as a Hypickler or MCPVPer? Just because I'm on the forums and spend all of my free time on Brawl does not mean I'm a BRAWLER!

    My pronouns: "he", "him", "his", and "that" or "this" followed by praises/compliments and ending in "Randy."
    Example: That godly, swagalicious, dank-memer Randy...

    "pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosim"
    not "pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconioser"

    when referring to #blm does that mean black lives matter, or blue lives matter?
