Puerto Ricans as a Case Study for the Adoption of Gender Inclusive Language in Spanish

My interviews revealed varying definitions of what gender inclusive language means to speakers, the importance of sociocultural context in its use, and future possibilities for its development as a tool for community building and allyship.

Abstract

My research question is: why do people decide to use or not use gender inclusive language? How might demographics such as age, gender identity, or sexual orientation influence this reasoning? My interviews revealed varying definitions of what gender inclusive language means to speakers, the importance of sociocultural context in its use, and future possibilities for its development as a tool for community building and allyship.
