I think it's weird when cis people act like misgendering trans people isn't at all hurtful because cis people loathe being misgendered. I had a friend in grade school who kept her hair short and it pissed her off to no end when people called her a boy and it happened frequently. Mistake someone's infant for the wrong gender and suffer for it. Misgender a cis persons dog and suffer for it. Men and boys get told not to be pussies or they X "like a girl" to deliberately humiliate them (although misogyny plays it's role in this one too) and all the sudden when trans people say they don't like being misgendered cis people are confused?

Trans people know when you misgender them you're not making a mistake, you're looking to humiliate them the way you feel humiliated when you're mistaken for a gender you're not. No need to act like trans people are requesting special consideration when you don't want to be continuously labeled the wrong gender either.

#winters ramblings #conicidentally i also used to periodically keep my hair short and i honestly dont remember if people thought i was a boy #but i DO remember when my friend would get pissed off when she was called a boy how stupid i found it #that adults around us seemed to confuse hair length for GENDER so congrats to 9 year old me for being smarter #than 99% of the political apparatus and also smarter than 100% of transphobes #but like seriously you want to act like you think misgendering is fine? ok ill call you what you arent and WATCH how fast you lose your mind #almost like trans people are asking for whats already given freely to cis people without a fight OR making it a political problem #like if cis people had to fight in a court of law to change their gender marker on their IDs theyd fucking explode #but trans people but up with a TON of bullshit like this and yall wanna whine shes a GIRL?? use she her pronouns #and stop acting like the snowflakes you think trans people are for asking for shit you DEMAND or else #like shit you fucks lose it if your DOG is mistaken for a girl when its a boy and you think HUMAN BEINGS should be treated #apparently with LESS respect than your damn POOCH who dont give a damn any which way? fine you should get treated the same way #just to clown your stupid ass out of oublic soace since you cant POSSIBLY bitch at bring called the wrong gender #when you tell a whole group of other people they should shut the fuck up and just be misgendered forever #like cis people so fucking stupid sometimes. their transphobia makes them embarrassing #and im sure cis people who arent fuckos are just as embarrassed of and for them
