    Explanation: Just a linguistics joke. “Trad” chuds often insist there are only two genders, and idolize Rome, without the first idea about Rome other than “Marble busts and strong jawed legions”.

    But the Latin language itself has three genders - masculine, feminine, and neuter!

        I’ve never made the link between that and gender before (linguistically), it seems obvious in hindsight.

        be careful - they might just take the word “neuter” a bit too far…
