Finally, some good news: Gov. Huckabee Sanders bans THESE 'woke' terms from State Govt



Someone has to fight back against woke culture’s takeover of language, and right now that person is Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

The first woman and the first mother to serve as the governor of Arkansas, as well the first mother and only the third woman to serve as the White House press secretary — is fed up.

Sanders has signed an executive order banning woke words from the state government.

“We’ve had enough. Enough trying to erase women and girls. Enough denying our biological differences from men and enough of the craziness that is taking over our country,” Sanders said proudly.

As a woman and a mother, Sanders is well aware that women are intrinsically different from men.

“I came into this role with a few pretty unique experiences. Among them is giving birth to three amazing kids. That experience underscored to me that a woman’s perspective is important and fundamentally different from a man's,” Sanders said, adding, “women have taken a backseat to political correctness.”

Among the words Sanders is banning with her executive order are “pregnant people, laboring person, birth-giver, and several other nonsense terms that have cropped up in recent years.”

While Sanders expects to receive backlash from the left, she’s unphased.

“Conservatives are starting to fight back, and they better get ready because we’re just getting started.”

AP Stylebook clarifies when to use 'pregnant women' instead of 'pregnant people'



Just a few months after updating its style guide to include phrases such as "pregnant people" and "people seeking abortions," the AP has attempted to clarify the context in which such phrases should be used. In most cases, the AP states, gendered phrases that refer to women are "acceptable."

According to a tweet from the @APStylebook account on Wednesday, phrases that specifically identify women as the group of people who can get pregnant may, in fact, be appropriate.

"Pregnant women or women seeking abortions is acceptable phrasing," the AP wrote.

However, there is a catch.

"Phrasing like pregnant people or people seeking abortions is also acceptable to include people who have those experiences but do not identify as women," the AP continued, "such as some transgender men and some nonbinary people."


\u201cWe now have guidance saying that "pregnant women" or "women seeking abortions" is acceptable phrasing. \nPhrases like "pregnant people" or "people seeking abortions" are acceptable when you want to be inclusive of people who have those experiences but do not identify as women.\u201d

The AP cautions that men and women alike should "use judgment" in such cases, always keeping in mind that "neutral alternatives" that make no reference to gender are "also acceptable." "Overly clinical language," the AP insists, should be avoided.

This updated style tip comes just three months after the previous updated style tip, which first introduced the gender-neutral phrases "pregnant people" and "people seeking abortions" only for those stories "that specifically address the experiences of people who do not identify as women." Thus, the latest update is not so much a departure from the previous update as a clarification about when to use supposedly more inclusive alternatives.

Still, this update does imply that a generalized association between women and pregnancy is "acceptable," with some notable exceptions.

But most tweet commenters seemed to prefer to keep things simple.

"In the entire history of human beings on this planet, only women have ever been pregnant," replied @DanShreffler.

"I love the continuing efforts to make basic communication as difficult and exhaustive as possible," said another response.

Others took issue with the word women, not because of the gender it connotes, but because of the age.

"Please keep in mind that the use of 'people' is inclusive of *girls* as well as trans/non-binary people. A ten-year-old is not a 'pregnant woman.' Calling her that minimizes the horror of what’s happening in the US," wrote one user, perhaps in reference to the recent alleged rape of a 10-year-old girl in Ohio.

The AP claims that though it publishes a spiral-bound version of its Stylebook updates only every other year, it updates its Stylebook digital services "throughout the year as style changes and updates are made."
