I know many people will dismiss this as feminist whining. I dont mean it to diminish my deep and heartfelt gratitude for this forum, which is huge. But I just want to say that I’m still really bothered by the gendered language of many of the mantras on Sobertime. Like today, “the man who succeds in knocking will succeed in entering”. The quotation is from Hebrew, Moses Ibn Ezra, and you could easily translate it as, “whoever persists”. But this gendered translation has been chosen. None of the quotes on ST ever use female pronouns. I find myself not wanting to look at the timer page for this reason, even though I got the app for the timer. I know it isnt going to change. I can live with that fact, in serenity. I know its a tiny thing in a world where there are so many far worse kinds of inequality. I still love the app and feel super grateful for it. But I wanted to get it off my chest, because it just seems like a shame to me.
