They Im going to guess it should be she. Dunno really who ElatedVenusaur was.
I've been saying they for over 20 years now when I'm talking about someone I haven't met and don't know which pronoun to use.

Generally speaking if somebody has made clear their preferred pronouns are she/her, it is seen as misgendering
Same deal with people using dude. For a lot of people it's gender-neutral but if a woman (cis or trans) specifically requests you not use the word dude, then you're misgendering them.
Do we know for sure that that poster knew that about her? Maybe so and I just don't know the poster. But banning someone for saying "they" unless just told explicitly not to seems extreme.

I see the bigots get modded and banned all the time.
Post #13. The user deliberately used "their" instead of "her," specifically to avoid using EV's preferred pronouns. Dreepapult is 100% aware of what he's doing, and the intention was to insult. He'll will feign innocence, saying something like "I use 'they' for everyone to avoid accidently offending someone," which is the opposite of the truth. The intention is clear.

The user that said "their" is fully aware of EV's preferred pronouns, and use "their" to deliberately misgender.

We do indeed know with 100% certainty that the poster knew that about her. This is not the first time it happened. There is no justification for leaving that post up.

Yeah, thats fine.

The person saying it was misgendering is making a claim that dreepapult(who the hell is this?) knew ElatedVenusars gender and was deliberately using they to deny EVs gender identity.

I completely understand that real life circumstances can have people on edge, but I will never understand why they all chose a fucking videogame as the target of their ire. Just taking three seconds to step back and realize that it ultimately has zero impact on anything would have done a world of wonders.

I'm pretty sure they aren't. They've both posted selfies before

The two transgendered users have become more abrasive over the years. Wonder why that is. Could it be that their entire existence is constantly being attacked?

The accusation is hilariously stupid.


I thought so at first too, but if it's not true, all you have do is simply say "it wasn't intentional, I just don't know their pronouns".

Don't say "y'all need to chill"

or "y'all are addicted to being mad"

or "y'all are wild"

Yeah, that's not how it works. Using a neutral pronoun is fine when you don't know better. Once you do know better, you switch. (Unless, of course, you used an acceptable neutral pronoun in the first place).

"They" is fine if you don't know a person. If you know a person, and know she prefers female pronouns, then using "they" is a deliberate attempt to avoid being respectful, and is transphobic. Context matters. And in this particular case, the intention was to offend.

That post remaining up is an example of this site allowing blatant transphobia. And users like him know they can get away with it and continue to troll the topic

EV couldn't handle GPG getting banned. She said this place is getting worse and worse, so she simply closed her account. Very knee-jerk reaction. Shame, EV was a pretty chill person.

It's weird that people who don't like trans people have an issue with singular they when it used to be the go-to in deliberately misgendering LGBTQ people

It's not always wrong, though. I use "they" regularly, regardless of whether or not I know someone's gender and pronouns, and have been since long before it was a culture war. But again, some people use it to deliberately avoid validating a person's gender.
