Latinx was such a stupid choice. Let’s take gendered words with a vowel at the end and replace the vowel with a hard consonant. It makes it so much harder to say and sounds wrong.
They should have picked a more sensible sound that flows like the original words.

It may have been inspired by “x” representing an unknown variable like you would see in a math equation, so in that context, it kind of makes sense.
Yeah I understand why x looks good on paper. As soon as you try to use in in spoken dialog the flaws become apparent. It’s clearly not going to work.
