...issue is particularly salient for the transgender community on campus, which has been publicly ridiculed for using gender-neutral pronouns like ze and hir and bringing speakers to campus who wax poetic about boydykes, genderqueers, and butch fairies. Pronouns and terminology that express personal identity are not just about semantics. Words are more than words. Ze and hir are necessary pronouns for people who may not identify in a binary structure of male and female, and calling these pronouns ridiculous fundamentally means that you think living outside of that binary is equally ridiculous.

...your new book, you wax poetic about doing laundry. Why? It may be that part of my pleasure is the pleasure of the released prisoner. I remember very well what it was like in my childhood in a very backward part of the country [Appalachia]. We had this tub with a wringer, and it was an ordeal. The day my mother did wash, she was irritable because she was tired and she hated it. The rain would come, and the wash wouldn't dry. So when you finally have these machines and all you do is make decisions and push...
