Fommes takes on a complex and ambitious vision. Triggering gender-free language worldwide through an an organic, bottom-up approach that respects the autonomy of language users.

Our approach: We raise awareness so people recognize problems they already experience, then provide space and motivation for them to experiment with solutions in their own communities. We believe the most elegant and sustainable solutions emerge when people address their own communication needs.

Current gendered language creates three critical problems that affect everyone daily:

It propagages inequality. Empirical studies demonstrate that all languages worldwide (except Finnish) structurally disadvantage women. This isn't opinion - it's measurable reality affecting women's well-being, health, and life quality across cultures.

Communication becomes unnecessarily complex and confusing. Gender-based language creates semantic gaps, logical inconsistencies, and forces artificial complexity into everyday expression. We struggle to communicate clearly when our language structure works against precision.

Violence is legitimized and banalized. While language doesn't create violence against women, it normalizes and perpetuates it. This violence propagates globally, contributing to broader social conflicts and geopolitical instability. Even those who benefit from current structures suffer in a world where arbitrary violence is linguistically sanctioned.

These aren't abstract problems - they're daily friction points that most people experience but haven't connected to language structure.

We are an online community and a platform that brings together all the necessary IT resources and infrastructure to experiment a fumeniste language - a language that speaks gender equality rather than discriminates and talks about it.

Fommes offers a content management system(a free blog), as well as well a surface to develop innovative IT tools to raise awareness to their vision.

Our tools are designed to connect the abstract concept of gendered language to concrete, daily problems that users can recognize, and emphasis on community engagement to engage "Critical Mass Strategy" to deliver a strategical change.

What we do: We identify and document the specific linguistic problems that need solving. We establish clear frameworks showing what challenges any gender-free language must address - the semantic gaps, logical contradictions, and communication barriers that current structures create. We make research accessible and provide platforms for community engagement and experimentation.

What we don't do: We don't prescribe solutions, create new grammar rules, or tell people how to speak. This isn't our role or competence. Language belongs to its users, not to institutions or experts.

We believe lasting change comes from people, by people. History shows that imposed language changes fail, while organic innovations succeed when they serve real needs.

The organic innovation model: Just as people's need to document their lives pushed phone companies to develop high-quality cameras and selfie technology (innovations nobody mandated), language changes when enough users experiment with better ways to communicate. The breakthrough comes when critical mass is reached - when enough people engage simultaneously that successful innovations spread naturally.

Why this works: People resist imposed change but embrace innovations that improve their lives. When communities create their own solutions, those solutions reflect actual needs and cultural contexts, making them sustainable.

Our catalytic role: We motivate critical mass experimentation by helping people understand both the problems they face and the potential for better communication. Once enough people are engaged, the solutions emerge organically and spread through natural adoption patterns.

When critical mass experiments, sustainable change follows.
