keep seeing posts (that are i think good and correct) about how pronouns circles/asking for pronouns are primarily for cis comfort#and will often harm the very people they're intended to help (essentially giving Instructions on how to misgender and other trans women)#but like. i (cafab nonbinary) Exist In A Context and can only be misgendered until i loudly advocate to be seen outside of binary gender#i dont wanna be Getting In The Way of The Movement because my feewings are hurt but i will never be correctly gendered UNLESS people ask#my pronouns. there are very few people on this earth who will see me and not see a woman. which is a privilege especially being white#like i dont think this is Harm being done to me i think it is just frustrating. its not a Real Problem i am not really at risk of violence#The Movement as a whole seems to have backed away from non-binary acceptance/acknowledgement as a goal. which is good and fine especially#when survival as a community is definitely a Higher Priority like. existentially. it doesnt need to be About Me i'm doing fine.#but i'd like to live in a world where i can be correctly gendered by strangers without it coming in the form of misdirected transmisogyny
I'm sorry if you think it's a good thing that "the movement" has stopped fighting for acceptance of nonbinary people....you've got some serious exorsexism to work out :|
It is not good and fine for nonbinary people to be erased and dropped as though we're inconvenient and dangerous for other trans people to be associated with. You should not be okay with nonbinary people being erased and ignored and you shouldn't have to pretend you're okay with it either.
You are allowed to be upset by exorsexism from the trans community.
