I think W should be made to be one syllable, like wi or something. (Sounds good, ex, wi, why, zee?)

The social construct that has been put in place for centuries is a typical in a white, male dominated society. Round-Letter privilege is destructive and not what the youth of today should be hearing. Stand up to this moral atrocity.

Since toddlehood, I've questioned society's unbearably foolish convention to have a clearly un-rounded letter be conveyed in the archaic “double-U” manner. Clearly logic demands the more visually accurate “double-V” pronunciation. People have told me to get with the program. But why must I accept a construct that clearly is warped and groundless? I never chose the “double-U”. I support what I see, and that’s clearly: “double-V.” I’m ecstatic another man sees the need for change like I do. Now I have something to rally behind. This isn’t a joke. This is real. Support a world that makes a spoonful of sense.
