#people with ambiguous gender presentation dont owe you an explanation or description

do u guys remember a couple of years ago when trans people said it would be nice if cis people put their pronouns in their bio so it was more difficult to target trans people online and lots of cis people did that but then ruined it by becoming aggressive “allies” who harassed people all over the internet who didnt have their pronouns in their bio? do you remember when cis people tried to be allies and immediately had to ruin it by proving to all of us that they were good allies by harassing people who were potentially questioning their gender and subsequently put under pressure or not in a safe situation to put their pronouns in their bio? i feel like that speaks to a lot of how cishet people view allyship. taking one idea and running with it despite the people they claim to help saying it’s damaging and unhelpful
