“Androgynous” and “outwardly queer presentation” is 1000% subjective. Using gender neutral pronouns creates more inclusive vocabulary. This take implies that nb people owe you androgyny. They do not.

Don’t make me bring back the “did you just assume my gender/sexuality?” Queer people, and specifically nonbinary people, don’t look a certain way.

What’s the difference between this and “she has no femininity?”

It’s called being considerate? Well.. there’s also the possibility the person doesn’t want to accidentally offend tbh

Why are they downvoting you when you’re right. Otherwise it’s just sexist stereotypes

Because this community has no moderation and no vetting, so it’s overrun with transphobia and homophobia and racism and misogyny and alllll the other stuff. It’s deeply infested, to the point of borderline unusability.
