Suggestions, comments, and concerns should go here.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Things don't just become inoffensive just because offense wasn't intended. It's still wrong! And I think you're muddying things with the subber's intent anyways; the person is finding the male pronouns being used for trans women offensive. That's what I took as the intent behind the secret, not really that it mattered much if the subber was doing it themselves. That would be bad too, but it's still bad even if the subber is being faithful because, well ... it's still offensive? I wouldn't blame the subber for that, it's their job to be accurate, but you know, you can find the SHOW offensive for it still. Because ... it is.

And please, don't start with this "it's hard to know what pronouns to use sometimes" nonsense. If the person in front of you is obviously presenting themselves as a woman (or at least making an effort to do so) the only decent thing to do would be to refer to them as one! That's what you'd do with anyone else; you're just letting the fact that they're trans confuse you when this is a very simple issue. And if you mess up initially, just apologize and don't do it again.

I'm not sure why I'm bothering with this, at this point you're probably not going to see this, are you? >_>;
