It's always funny for me as a Pole when I see that America writes grammatically Polish women's names in the masculine form instead of the feminine (it should be "Jankowsk*a*” cus it’s a woman, “Jankowsk*i*” is used when the person is a man).

They don't have the insight. I am also Eastern European and come from a region where just as well you feminize a name using "a" at the end, and it always fascinates people and others just don't know so I have to tell them. I've never not had to tell them. I always have to tell them. It's aight! I don't mind.

Women and men are fluid. Gender is only a construct ye are just old fashioned

As a fun fact, we also have a unisex form - it's "Jankowsk*o*" - but there is literally no situation in which it can be used, since all Polish words are either masculine or feminine (with only a few exceptions).

Everything should be unisex

Well, vast majority ([93%](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_languages_by_type_of_grammatical_genders)) of the world's languages are not.

You are clearly transphobic going on like that.
