Can i be real for a sec I really dislike how the concept of being gender neutral or androgynous or nonbinary or just. Trans but not explicitly masc or fem *only* seems to exist as a way to completely suppress and disrespect binary trans peoples identities- usually, if not always transfems-, while nb people arent actually respected or protected when we want our neutrality to be addressed. Like people can't seem to respect us when we "dont look" nonbinary and theyll gender us however they please and then turn around refuse to acknowledge transfems n transmascs gender by stubbornly "remaining neutral" with the pronouns n terms they use. It really isn't a concept people take seriously unless they want to be hateful and it drives me up the wall.

#not even talking about cishets specifically here but still just. hrmn #from 'women and afab nbs' to Purposely using they/them pronouns for binary transwomen #to making halfassed bullshit gender neutral terms instead of just addressing people properly #to infantilizing nb people bc our identities are not respected!n just straight up making binary trans people out to be predatory #again its almost always at transfems too like.#it is exhausting bc when you bring this up niggas will swear youre crazy or just making shit up #mag.txt
