3:15 *facepalm* for someone who analyses old poems and can read between lines, you of all people should know that the word “men” is carried from the old English word which means “Humans”. This poem is not referring to “men” as the gender, the poem is referring to “men” as in human kind. I’m so tired of people jumping to conclusions that people are inherently sexist when the English language has numerous words that overlap and contain different meanings.

Didn't know Thomas wrote in Old English. Thought he was a twentieth century poet. Also, pointing out sexist language structures is different than calling a specific poet or poem sexist. I was attempting to do the former.

@@OxfordCommaEducation I’m saying that the word has been overlapped into modern English from old English. Men can mean both gender and humans because that is what is derived from old English. So when poets use the word “men” in the context used in the poem, they are referencing humans as a whole, not a specific gender.
@OxfordCommaEducation15 күн бұрын
I understand that Dylan is using it in that way. I'm pretty sure I even point out in the video that the poem is referring to all people. But, social and linguistic critics have long pointed out that the reason "man" continued to be used as a fill in for all humans for 1000 years past it's original meaning was because it was being used by a male centric society. All my comment on the video was mean to point out was that this poem is for all people, even if the word choice can be a little alienating to a modern reader.

@@OxfordCommaEducation you’re pointing out lax evidence that is not weighted in linguistics of the English language as a lazy means of defending a unfairly made snide joke you made at 3:15 that makes the poet out to seem sexist when the poet used the word correctly. And because of your nonchalant attitude towards the subject and insistence on deniability, I’m not interested in taking you seriously as an analyst of poetry.

@@Lurker_of_the_shadows Hey, it's your prerogative to follow whomever you want. Just treat others with kindness. The shift to words like police officer, mail carrier, and human kind might seem pointless to you, but I believe language is powerful and the words we use matter.

One of the most profound discoveries of the 20th century is that DNA is a package of prescriptive, functional, algorithmically operational, linguistically organized information. Such information can only be produced by mental processes. A mind is necessary. Undirected material processes cannot create them. This is empirical evidence that life is in fact designed by exquisite intelligence. The information in DNA is more complex more highly organized and more functional than that of Microsoft Windows 11. It is also highly compressed and reads One direction as one instruction set and read backwards it produces completely different instructions using the same space. We do not know how it's possible to write such instructions with our current technology.
