Paging fellow queers:

Is it only ever cishets (who call themselves things like ) who use the term ?

@anubis2814 Seems to be popular among some of the Irish lads.

@clickhere Ah, yeah might be just an Irish thing, not a single urbanist channel I follow uses it, and I watch over a dozen.

@anubis2814 Ugh. Though, at least it's not that widespread (yet).

@clickhere Ok I have to know.
Town planners?
Followers of Pope Urban VI?
Some new Crustie variant?

@faduda The kind of people who use the word "bioswale" for a ditch, as though they've invented something fabulously original and new. Town planners, basically, but environmentalist types specifically.

@clickhere @faduda are they looking to sound smart? Or to try and impress people? Or are they just being pedantic? Is it really a gender related thing?

@bernat @faduda At a guess, it's the first thing. And it's gendered, yes.
