Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

I don't understand why folx is an improvement over folks

I've been seeing it lately as being somehow more queer-friendly but I cannot for the life of me figure out the distinction

i know x has recently been used in terms like latino to make it more gender-neutral, so "latinx" pronounced like la-tin-ex. i believe plural is la-tin-ex-es?

I Am Not A Latino but i prefer latin@ tho tbh, "latinx" throws my stupid brain off and i always read it as "la-tinks." my brain pronounces latin@ like "la-tin-ao" but "ao" at least exists in portuguese.

my weeb ass is also influenced by pokemon fandom's use of "lati@s" for latias/latios.

other than that? idk, it's XTREME ig.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folx_(term)

...yeah, i'm trans and idgi either. like you said, it's not a gendered word.

i get latinx. i get mx (alternative to mr, ms, etc.). i don't get folx.

da, in all my years within and adjacent to this community, this thread is literally the first time i'm hearing about "folx"

like this is purely annecdotal, but i don't think that term is widespread at all, idk how it managed to get its own wiki article.
