The entire point of putting the pronouns you use in your bio was to make it less of an obvious out when trans people did it. When you people get mad about shit like this it does tell me you’re most likely genuinely transphobic. You guys just know that’s not something good to be so you get defensive asf over smthn I am sure nobody actually said

I understand the reasons for doing it but I also understand why some people don’t. Maybe they have family members following them and don’t feel safe expressing preferred pronouns to those people or maybe they’re questioning their own gender identity and aren’t even sure which pronouns they prefer. If the point is to keep trans people safe then we should also acknowledge that advertising preferred pronouns may, in fact, be UNSAFE for some trans people

This is bean souping it btw lmao I am transgender and I would put money on knowing more than you. Nobody ever said the quote you just shared and if anyone did, why are you taking it so fucking personal if it’s very obviously not about this minority of people you’re creating in your hypothetical situation? It blows my mind that you people were able to graduate high school with your lack of ability to apply context and nuance to things.

This was a conversation that I had in my own real life and directed at me…,,,… someone who would be unsafe if my family was aware of my preferred pronouns………

And I genuinely think that you are either lying or taking it too personally because you have some form of guilt about it

You’re entitled to think whatever you want but you weren’t there and you don’t know me so idrk why you’re jumping to conclusions and being an asshole about it lmao. Demanding that all trans people publicize their identity on social media or else they must be bigoted seems backwards to me personally
