AYRT—I’m gonna be polite and refer to people, even people I think are assholes, by their preferred pronouns and as the gender they self-identify as. I will call them an asshole if I think they’re being an asshole, however.

Also that’s nice for you that being misgendered isn’t a big deal. I never freaked out and screamed “it’s ma’am!” at anyone, I generally just went and hid in the bathroom and cried. I wear form-fitting tops, skirts, and my hair long to try and avoid it happening more often, but it doesn’t always work.

It takes me more effort to remember people’s names (everybody’s, not just gnc/trans people’s) than their pronouns. But even if you make honest mistakes, it takes real effort to be the asshole that goes around misgendering people on purpose. If someone tells you they’re a woman, or a man, or non-binary, just fucking go with it. They’re not doing it to fuck with you. And if you deliberately misgender someone, YOU ARE AN ASSHOLE.

I'm sorry the pain that causes you. Those of us with facial hair have all been negatively affected by it. Having facial hair as a woman is a difficult hand to be dealt whether we accept it or not.

I've always been more upset that to navigate through this effed up, male biased life, one has to shave. That and the shit is so uncomfortable.
