It Is Long Past Time for Gender-less Connector Equality

It’s time for industry to throw off its patriarchal and oppressive history and eradicate the use of the sexist and misogynistic designations of connectors as “male” or “female” and replace them with politically correct and gender-neutral alternatives.

We need to dispel gender connector myths, such as the idea that female connectors are more resistant to damage or contamination and move beyond the current attempts at simple hermaphroditic connectors, because all connectors should be free to express their own gender identity and not be locked into simplistic and trans-phobic labels given them arbitrarily by others.

We urge standards bodies and manufactures to eliminate these hateful designations before December 31, 2019.  We further demand the elimination of all existing “legacy” connectors currently in use by December 31, 2021.  Otherwise we will lead a boycott and call on all consumers of wireless and electronic products to cease purchasing any and all products using these designations until these cruel and incorrect labels are eliminated.
