I’ll let you in on a tiny last secret: They want to live their lives just like everybody else. You know, with a little change here and there.
 
I’d say more but I’m mentally exhausted. Hope you learnt something.

@Violet Rose in The Rain  
No

@Prometheus labs CEO  

 
And do they speak for everybody else who uses non-cisgender pronouns?

@Violet Rose in The Rain  
I have talked to people that used non-Cisgender pronouns a few times, the encounters ranged from normal to insane, but the 2 craziest were protestors in San Fransisco so that was to be expected

@Prometheus labs CEO  
Want to hear a secret?
 
They’re not going to get mad at you if you misgender them on accident. The most they’ll get is a temporary sad mood, but that ends quickly.
 
Shocking, isn’t it? It’s almost like “Did you assume my gender” is nothing but a meme propagated by people arguing in bad faith, and you all gobbled such rhetoric up.
 
Edit: Have you ever talked to anybody who uses pronouns different from what they were born as? I fucking have, and none of them decided to be hysterical about it like the strawmen you were told to believe in.

@Violet Rose in The Rain  

 
Literally none of that was what I said. And I wasn’t talking about transgender people, I was talking about when people “make up”(for lack of a better word) their own personalized pronouns and expect everyone else to call them that, and then get furious when they don’t. Also it’s harder to remember than you think, I mean if you’ve pretty much learned for your entire life to refer to men by male pronouns and women by female pronouns and then someone asks you to make this exception where you have to replace every gender pronoun(which appear quite often) Referring to them with this new series of pronouns they created themselves.
 
At the very least it would be very easy and understandable to accidentally forget to call them by “their pronouns” every now and then. but if you make the slightest mistake they get furious with you, the same kind of fury a black person might get if you call them the N word, even though it was just an honest mistake not some kind of deep personal insult
 
Also for the record I’m not trying to hostile or aggressive in any kind of way if that’s what your taking this as, I’m merely trying to create a logical argument.

Hey now, #notallrightwingers. What are you some kind of bigot?

@Prometheus labs CEO  

You know, it doesn’t take much effort to remember someone’s pronouns, because it’s literally memorising at least one or two words.  

 
You heard it here first, folks. Once we accept non-binary and transgender folks and address them by their correct pronouns, it’s a slippery slope to them beheading innocent cows and children on farm fields in the dead of night and performing Satanic rituals to please Old Nick himself.
 
By the way, speaking of psychotic, which demographic is the main one that goes on mass shootings and rack up kill counts of dozens of innocents again?

@Violet Rose in The Rain  
Youre right that all words are artificial in nature. A more accurate statement would be that said words represent ridiculous and hypercustomized concepts that would only apply to a handful of heavily disconnected individuals. Individuals who selfishly expect the rest of society to conform to their standards rather than simply except reality, and to accommodate them is similar to humoring a psychotic’s delusions, although on a much smaller level

@Background Human  
There’s a difference between talking about how you want to be addressed and making the language unreadable.
 
Don’t worry about it too much, though. Languages change all of the time and how it’s used differ slightly between generations. tl;dr it isn’t static and changes just as humans do.

Give me one time you’ve seen someone requesting “quzjyks” pronouns. Just one.

@Violet Rose in The Rain  
Language exists to facilitate communication. If you’re pfargtling up new quzjyks and demanding that others hfpmnl them, don’t be surprised when they v11111 you with a lead pipe.

@Violet Rose in The Rain
 
Can’t wait for the anti-sjws to try and storm the gates of Webster.

@Prometheus labs CEO
 
Yeah, I’m sure.

“All those pronouns are just made-up words!”
 
Yeah, and look at words like “He, she, and they.” Clearly, they were all just 100% natural words that cavepeople found on trees and incorporated them into languages all over the world instead of making them as civilisation went along. /s
 
News flash: All words are constructed and made up by people, and more words are being created every day. That doesn’t make them any less “real,” whatever your fucked-up definition of “real” in this context is.

@GargantuanBass  
I can’t tell if that’s sarcasm or not

@Prometheus labs CEO
 
Nice meme. It’s like I’m really back in 2014.

@DiscipleOfAndrewRyan  
Since with neuter it’s just a deformation resulting in a lack of genitals, rather than the person actually lacking a sex, I’d say it doesn’t count
 
As for the second thing  

@DiscipleOfAndrewRyan
 
You should never call someone something so dehumanizing as “it”.

there are only two genders: male and female. three if you count neuter, though it doesn’t really seem to occur often in nature. :P
 
 
@Prometheus labs CEO  
the chart is missing “it, it, its, its, itself.” :v

@Background Pony #5560  
Not when “not being a dick to people” requires you to remember dozens of made up/customized pronouns unique to each individual
