Also Finns. We have perfectly gender neutral pronouns but we prefer to use "it" instead

I thought terfs insist on using the false pronoun? Using more than 2 pronouns for humans breaks the gender binary

No they say it because they want to objectify and demean you. I knew a guy like this and it had nothing to do with sticking to the binary and everything to do with making people feel bad for being different.

Yeah it's really sad that people are like that. He was the choir teacher at my hs and would call a nb person in the group 'it' if he was corrected. Just kinda gross but he was old as fuck and abt to retire anyway so we never really escalated it.
