Current Events > If you can't be respectful to trans people, don't even fuckin TALK to me BRO!

(+) Yeah! (+)

If you can't even be bothered to try and make trans people comfortable, to help them feel safe and accepted, don't even fuckin TALK to me BRO

It doesn't even take much
All it takes it not being an absolute jerk
because at this point if you call someone opposite of their preferred pronoun, you're just being a jerk.

I think most people can tell when someone is presenting female, or if they're presenting male
and if you're wrong, they will politely correct you
and then you can just go with what they ask

Is it REALLY so hard to put your religious or ideological hang-ups aside for one fucking second to say the pronoun they obviously prefer you say just so someone other than yourself can feel more comfortable?

Like holy crap people, it's ridiculous.

If you cannot even be bothered to do ONE nice thing for trans people and help them feel accepted by not being a jerk, don't even fucking TALK to me BRO

given that the only real ways you can be modded for responding to this (as far as I can tell, logically) are Trolling, Flaming, or Offensive.

Think about that

This makes no sense tbh because you never refer to a person directly using a pronoun. You refer to other people other than the person of subject using pronouns.

I remember you saying you were bi but leaned hetero in some thread. Hopefully youre sincere and not simply latching onto these ideations simply because of your (obvious) political leanings. Not everything has to revolve around identarian logic.

That's fine, as long as it's a real pronoun.

how you treat and refer to a person when they're not there is the surest sign of respect

yes but you can respect a trans person without respecting the trans part of them

decide who they are

see that's the thing
some people don't see that decision as something that you can well, decide

you could also arguing that the trans persons ideology isn't inherently better than the cis persons

Demanding that a person refer to other people about you in specific ways is a perfect way to not earn any respect. If anybody told me I had to refer to them to other people in a way they demanded of me, I wouldn't, and then I'd laugh at them for making such an insanely stupid demand of me.

Yeah but youre Hoth so who cares what dumb claim youre making tonight?

Do you ever actually think before you say anything, or do you literally just say the dumbest possible thing every time it's possible to communicate with someone?

It's like you just walk into rooms where people are and go "Listen up everybody! I found a snail yesterday on the ground." Then everyone just kind of awkwardly looks at you for a second and goes back to their usual business. You then proceed to think you impressed everyone in the room and congratulate yourself for your triumph.

I'm always going to use he or she. Not actively trying to offend anyone but that's how I've always referred to people. If you'd like to be referred to as one or the other, cool, but I'm not about to adopt new pronouns.

I respect trans people more because they aren't afraid to be what their minds tell them. We all could learn a lot from them.

That's some poor logic right there. It's fine to respect trans people for being who they are on the inside, but your logic seems to indicate that you think that "cis" people aren't being themselves?

Are you ok, Hoth?

Yeah, I'm just genuinely curious because I've never seen you express an even remotely intelligent thought. Most of your posts are poorly exectued "insults" to other users.

My 5 year old nephew articulates interesting thoughts on a much more regular basis than you do.

shockthemonkey posted...

Ok then ignore my posts and go cry a river

No, I want you to understand how to be a better person tbh. I could help you if you'd be willing. You just have to start with resisting the urge to insult a person in every topic you choose to post in.

Sometimes they aren't. Cis people are usually teeming with insecurities.
