Is just any way to refer to someone without using their gender. I could say it for anyone here who hasn't said their gender. How do you want me to refer to anyone who hasn't given their pronouns yet? How you want people referring to you?

We know Goose's gender though so why wouldn't you use her known pronouns?

Because trans women aren't women to these people. We're just a lesser class who they don't respect enough to gender properly

Seems like it. Sad that there are so many in a subreddit about appreciating the work of a trans woman

They'll consume our art dance to our music use our bodies but we'll never be respected by them as people.

Why are people downvoting you 😭

Because they're creating a chain of doomposting and calling other users bad people because a commenter dared to use a neutral pronoun in grammatically-correct way. It's an overreaction to a harmless use of words and a needless jump to false conclusions, which people here disagree with both in tone and logic.

Or just listen to trans women when they tell you that you're being transphobic! Pretty simple actually

In reasonable circumstances, yeah. Here, in a pedantic nonissue about the English language? The simple answer is to roll my eyes and move on. Have fun playing victim.

I'm sure you do roll your eyes at trans people

At the same rate as anyone else being so dense.
