          Around the same time as this JasonDJ person got defensive about misgendering me, someone on Lemmygrad got defensive about misgendering someone else, after I called them out on it. Why do cis people feel so entitled? They get told they’re being disrespectful or hurtful or that they’re making people uncomfortable, and they just immediately, reflexively have to make up some sophistry for why they actually Don’t have to respect trans people’s wishes, needs and boundaries After All!

            i love these types because there is nothing at all subtle about them but they always think they’re being slick with their deflections. like no, sorry, i fundamentally do not believe that they are out there dying on the hill of calling their office buddy jim “jimbo”. it’s not happening. but the instant a trans person has an opinion on how they’d like to be referred to it’s “b-b-but i’ve been calling people dude since i was first incarnated in ancient sumeria! it’s literally my culture, this is genocide!!!”
