Pronoun game
this might occur with some people, but the title of this article is nonsense, as is most of the article itself. Exploding Boy 02:18, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete the concept might merit mention on an article dealing with Les/Bi/Gay issues, but I don't think it needs its own article. --Xcali 03:56, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * Actually, the title appears to be appropriate. It is what people call this activity.  See this, and this, and this and this and this and this and this and ... .  The activity seems to be a significant one, moreover.  The problem with this article is the third paragraph, which makes this appear to be a party game rather than a psychological game, not the title.  And there really isn't a place suitable for merging this.  None of gender-specific pronoun, gender-neutral pronoun, singular they, and gender-neutral language are wholly suitable, for example, since they are about pronouns rather than about the concealment of sexual orientation in conversation.  Situational sexual behavior is not about conversation and coming out is not about concealment.  Keep, with Move (retaining the redirect) to concealment of sexual orientation in conversation if a more descriptive title is desperately desired. Uncle G 05:20, 2005 Jun 12 (UTC)
 * Keep rewrite, don't move. Ambi 23:28, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep It's well referenced (and done so again by Uncle G), but the title could be made less specific while retaining the GBLF origin, benefits and purpose. &hellip; G u y M &hellip; (soapbox) 03:19, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong keep. &mdash; Phil Welch 16:03, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep or move Seems like important information.  Perhaps the gender-neutral pronouns entry may be a good home.  Outright deletion would be a shame.  posted by user: 143.88.86.146
 * Keep with a rewrite. JamesBurns 11:10, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep but rewrite required. --Lejend 12:06, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep but also add the point that people who are noncloseted queers or who are or straight may also speak like this so as to make a point that a person's sexual orientation shouldn't be assumed and doesn't have to be a big deal. --Triangular 10:06, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)
