&gt; Gendering nouns that aren&#x27;t actually gendered is one of the stupidest concepts humanity has inflicted on itself.<p>The objects referred to by nouns aren&#x27;t inherently gendered, gender is a feature of grammar (sex is a feature of some classes of  objects, and fairly recently the grammatical term was adopted as a euphemism for sex by people afraid of the word &quot;sex&quot;, and even more recently, inspired by that use, as a name of a social construct associated with, but distinct from, biological sex.)<p>But grammatical genders, while in some languages they have some correlation to sex distinctions, have no necessary relation to them, as gender distinctions may be on other axes entirely.<p>So the whole statement seems based on not understanding what &quot;gender&quot; is at all.
