nonbinary identities in French? please boost
How do you and your Francophone loved ones manage grammatical gender in French? I have a nonbinary friend who's a native English speaker and is learning French. They're trying to figure it out for themself. They're aware of «iel», and I'm planning to tell them about e.g. «amusant·e·s».
Please boost.
I'm much more interested in direct experiences from nonbinary Francophones and their loved ones than theory. Thank you <3

@epilanthanomai I’m interested in this also—I studied French for 6 years and have been wondering how nonbinary language is handled IRL

@soza @epilanthanomai moi, une anglophone: “une chaise n’a pas un genre!!”
aussi l’anglais: “through though cough tough enough”

@soza @epilanthanomai ah désolée. Tous les mots ont l’orthographe similaire, mais la prononciation est complètement différente. C’est fou
