Why are pronouns so important?

Most people find it disrespectful to be labeled incorrectly. I just wish people wouldn't overreact to someone getting their pronoun wrong once, or a few times. I have a trans friend and it took me weeks to consistently call him the right pronoun because another pronoun was already hardwired into my brain. As for random people, well, not everyone is educated on stuff like this so a simple misgender shouldn't be taken to heart if it wasn't out of bad intent.
 
what the hell m8 we have so many gd people flaming and look at how many fockin people are viewing this sh it thread

pretty much
 
what
of course it is misgendering if you use "any pronoun"??? if someone wants to be called "he" and you call him "she" it's misgendering
she means the same as he but you should call them he because they want to so it's not misgendering if it means the same gender

yes you can be lmao

we are all biased here so
 
this is such a fockn controversial theme to everyone on tbt because of people from different countries and sh it so like wtf? can we just please not?
respect one another, if at all possible? try not to kill each other? did i ever mention, this thread is pointless because everyone is so biased at TBT?
people who respect the pronouns, good you've made your point,
people who disrespect the pronouns, i think you've just about pissed off everyone here, including everyone here :^|

ken we not??
 
ok ppl do not automatically respect everyone they meet, thats not how things work.

that's why u ask people about pronouns or use "them" (or other gender neutral pronoun) about people you don't know.

obviously almost nobody does this, especialy not with strangers. But I don't think you have to always ask, use the pronouns other people use and if the person corrects you use that pronoun instead. Idk I get that it's not possible for people to magically know your pronouns, but if they get to know the pronouns they should use them!! ye
 
lol how my thread got close when all I wanted to know was how people felt about getting trash talk
while this made it to 16 pages like tf
