You can refer to some people by their continent but not others.

Preferred: North American or South American

BUT . . .

Problematic: Africa, which is a continent of many countries

Note: “African” is a broad term. Even though we know Africa as one of the seven continents, citizens prefer to identify with their country of origin, such as Ethiopian or Nigerian.

"Euphemizing automatically positions age as a negative."

They didn't do such a good job of employing the anti-euphemism principle to their own recommendations.

Problematic/Outdated: People of an alternative “lifestyle” (when referring to sexuality)

“Lifestyle” is an inaccurate term used by anti-gay extremists to denigrate lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender lives. As there is not one straight lifestyle, there is not one lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender lifestyle. Queer, historically a derogatory term, has been reclaimed by many sexual minorities and their allies. Queer is often used as an umbrella term to describe lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual, transgender, and questioning (of sexuality and/or gender identity).

Not all transgender people choose to, or can afford to have Sexual Reassignment Surgery. Journalists and researchers should avoid overemphasizing the role of SRS in the transition process.

Gender Attribution

The act of assuming someone’s gender upon first impressions based usually on their appearance

Note: The gender attributed to a person does not always coincide with that person’s stated gender identity.

Gender Expression

The way an individual expresses their gender through their clothing, attitude, hairstyle, etc.

Note: Many times homophobic attacks are actually attacks on an individual’s perceived gender expression and not necessarily their sexual orientation since it is not something you can actually see about a person.

Gender Identity

One’s innate inner feeling of being a man, woman, both or neither.

Note: Gender identity may or may not be associated with one’s physical body.
