#respect pronouns

It’s so weird seeing people on Twitter or Instagram complain and insult people over respecting pronouns and basically refuse to use someone’s preferred pronouns because they act like it’s so weird but pronouns are a real thing lmaoo they literally have pronouns themselves. They also act like it’s so offensive to ask someone what their preferred pronouns are like I literally saw a tweet where a woman acted super proud and self righteous because she stood up and took her child out of a doctors appointment because the doctor simply asked the daughter what her preferred pronouns were

They act like it’s stupid to refer to someone as they/them and think they’re really clever by using the same overused joke that they can only see one person but you’re not funny or clever you just look and sound like a twat.

Gender neutral pronouns can be used to refer to someone when you don’t know their gender. Some of these idiots will literally insult the use of gender neutral pronouns while using neutral pronouns in the same comment.

I want to be ‘she’ in the way a shy, 5'2 punk with short messy hair and a flat chest is 'she’; but I also want to be 'her’ how a badass, immaculately dressed businesswoman, who knows what she wants and always gets it, is 'her’.

And I want to 'he’ in the way a man with a full, neat beard who can rock a deep-necked evening gown is 'he’; but also 'him’ how a young, kind-faced, clean-shaven regency gentleman is 'him’.

And I want to be 'they’ how a hot steampunk force of nature is 'they’; but also 'them’ how a fae in the forest, beautiful and ineffable and singing, and dancing, and dancing, is 'them’.

And I want to use neopronouns how a downbeat punk musician uses neopronouns; I want to use them how a gentle, fresh-faced kid who’s innocent of all that’s fucked up in this world uses neopronouns.

I want to be a trans woman, I want to be a cis man; I want to be an enby punk, a genderfluid steampunk, a trans goth guy; I want to be.

My gender is confusing, but it’s my gender, and I don’t care if it doesn’t make sense.
