idk all you can ask from people is that they do their best but some days the energy it takes to deal with earnest efforts that fall short of the mark is prohibitively high.
#my office mate whom i love dearly#and is also a 42 yo cishet dude from india who has very limited exposure to anything queer#was among the group of ppl who ALL misgendered me in a bs mtg today#and when i sent a i use he him pronouns btw reminder in the gc afterwards#he was so distraught that he hurt me#it did not help that he wanted to talk abt it - a lot - while i was already reeling a bit#(bc we share an office) so i teared up#and then i had to spend the resr of the day comforting him#and i can't tell you how much i DID NOT have the energy for this#he is new to the firm#so he was like you are my only friend in the office and i stabbed you in the back D:#and it's like GIRL calm down#its fine#let me be annoyed at you for two hours in peace and then get over it ya know
