Uhm what?
It's a German thing. We've got a male and female form for pretty much all jobs. However it's not allowed to discriminate against gender. So pretty much all job listings have mwd for ~~men white Deutsch (german)~~ men women diverse with only the male form.
Because an international audience wouldn't understand it, they posted it as all genders.
As an added bonus it keeps Americans away.
You mean like gendered versions of the words for jobs? Or what do you mean?
Yeah. Most they get gendered with appending -in to the words. Like Fahrer and Fahrerin.
As an enby that's considering fleeing the USA, I'd note that it only discourages the most awful Americans. XD
There's some interest in attracting non-awful people from the US. Get a bit of a brain drain going from there:)
I'm very interested, and anxiously awaiting my passport.
Never tried changing my name or gender marker but I'm still worried they'll make up some excuse to deny me anyway.
Excuse: "Who would want leave America? Is such perfect country! Back to asbestos mines with you!"
Ah makes sense, thanks.
