Assigned male by tiktok user
#i genuinely laughed my ass off for a solid 10 minutes#can't even be mad because it's so funny and just stupid to me#i'm so confused what the thought process here was#i mean yeah it's assigning someone a gender based on your own assumptions and taking their autonomy of their own identity away#basically just found a progressive version of “you're a man because [way they look dress act etc]”#but the thing that kills me is that they used my pronouns to do that#something that is understood to be something put in place wholly by the individual themselves#i think it would be common sense to assume i'm aware what my pronouns are#and that if i use terms like wife of my own volition it isn't invalidating to my gender because i chose both of those ways to refer to me#“Your pronouns are he/him which means you're a husband!” made it sound like he/him pronouns are something objective i have to conform to#and not... words i deliberately picked myself?#what could they even have thought was happening here to think that would be a helpful sentiment?#yeah pronoun police is very common nowadays and people losing their shit at the idea of someones gender not aligning with their pronouns#realistically that's probably what happened here#but if i try to read genuine good intention into this it makes it so much funnier and ridiculous#tiktok#pronouns#gender nonconforming#nonbinary#non binary#genderqueer#multigender#multigender umbrella
