We see how cool headed are men when pay-gap is brought up.
Fucking cry-babies, they call everyone a snowflake and want to concern troll endlessly, but the moment sexism and racism comes up in a discussion they lose their shit.
Imagine when a trans person is perpetually punched down by the whole of society and still have to be nice because of strict tone policing.
To me, a trans person has every right to call you a moron when if you tried to debate their existence and rights, especially now that blatant transphobia is legitimized and normalized.
Did you just assume my gender?
It's your responsibility to correct someone if they misgender you. It's their responsibility to accept the correction and respect your identity after they have been corrected.
As I would do. You wanna be called a chick when you’re a dude? Cool fine. I can respect that. But the fact is playing extreme dress up doesn’t make you whatever it is you’re saying you are
Okay, I mean you haven't really respected my rights to be "called a chick" in this conversation but I'm glad you're willing to respect my right to be identified with whatever terminology I feel best describes me.
What I'm saying I am is a woman, a transgender one who was assigned male at birth and transitioned as a young adult. I'm not claiming to be anything else.
