    That’s a name, not a title. You don’t get to choose titles, they reflect objective truths.

      Exactly, those titles have meaning that reflect “objective truths”. E.g. I don’t conform to society’s male or female gender roles or expectations.

      It’s almost as if language exists to convey information and has been evolving with the constantly changing society that uses it.

      … or was your comment an appeal to made-up semantics because you don’t actually have a compelling argument?
