I think that's intended to be thinly veiled disgust at the idea that the language embraces two genders

I'll give a shit when Latinos and Latinas actually adopt it, thank you.

I've seen it used in Los Angeles by members of the Queer community and/or those who are trying to be more inclusive. But these people are definitely American born.
