Thread Name: BS: What Is Woke?
Subject: RE: BS: What Is Woke?
Like all new terms, 'woke' will gradually fade from modern vocabulary. It will be seen as out of date, then a new term will emerge. Sometimes old words such as 'cool' are resurrected. I suppose younger people seize on a new word and disseminate it.
However, the important thing about words is that they're fully understood by all, in order for them to convey thoughts and opinions.
By the way, I do feel uneasy about entering a public toilet or cubicle in a clothes shop to try on a garment and finding a physically male person there. I don't mind at all if a man wants to wear female clothes. But women are somewhat at risk in these places from predatory men posing as transgender etc as a cover for unacceptable actions.
