The article examines the problem of the feminisation of the names of professions and titles in Poland and their emotive reception. Gender-sensitive designations are already in use in the public sphere and especially in some circles that are less conservative. Nevertheless, the lack of official feminisation guidelines, if we do not take into account a 2019 opinion of the Polish Language Council, could contribute to a rejection of feminised terms by some users of the Polish language. This phenomenon is visible on social media in the emotional comments and in using devaluing vocabulary. The conclusions of our preliminary research are based on an analysis of comments posted in 2022 under the posts of Facebook campaign #wspieramfeminatywy, elaborated by the French banking group Parisbas in Poland. The authors submit to analysis the arguments of the detractors of feminisation by comparing them to those attested in the French-speaking world.
