On a positive note, it’s becoming unfashionable in Ukraine to be anti-feminist, homophobic or racist. These attitudes are associated with the Russians, and nobody wants to be like the Eastern neighbor any longer.
“Why are you saying this racist shit?” people ask. “What are you, a Putinoid?”
“In Ukrainian, female forms of nouns denoting professions don’t carry a pejorative meaning like they do in Russian, so just use them. Or are you a Putinoid who despises women?”
And that’s a great development.
