Mental Cat :3

why are you as a man keeping your eyes fully open? to see more men?

The expectation that you will refer to a trans person by their preferred pronouns and name is not them ‘forcing you to accept them’ it is basic respect. You don’t have to like trans people, you don’t have to ‘believe’ our identities or whatever. You do have an obligation to treat us like people, though. If you had a 40 something cis male coworker named Bill and you repeatedly, pointedly and aggressively called him ‘Shirley’ and exclusively used she/her pronouns to refer to him, that would be a major HR problem. It is not persecution to have to show basic human decency.

Love the message but these posts are always about how trans women are treated and not trans men or non-binary people, we are also deeply affected by this! Treating people with respect is common human decency!

I am quite literally a trans man and this post was inspired by a trans man speaking about his experience being forcefully and purposefully misgendered by a transphobic coworker in an office environment. I’m not sure how you could read this post and think “What about trans men? This post excludes trans men and nonbinary people.”

I like to fuck around and waste time for at least ~6-10 hours per day, and let me tell you, that really puts some pressure on your schedule. you have no idea how busy I am
