I know nothing about whatever thread your talking about, but honestly I keep accidentally calling my transgender friend a male, not because I'm offensive or whatever, it's an honest mistake. I've known hi-- her for a long time and naturally refer to her as a he. I'm not saying I shouldn't be corrected, but I would like for people not to get their panties in a bunch, especially when she hasn't corrected me before. Maybe its because she's shy, but I want to hear it from her, not someone else (I still haven't).

Also I keep calling her a him because it doesn't MATTER to me. Yes, it probably matters to her, but do know its a trivial detail because very little changes my opinion of her since her switch. Basically, it'd be nice if people would also understand that we don't mean offense if we accidentally slip up.

Dear lord, this. I was once dogpiled in a fandom_wank thread of all places because I mistakenly used the wrong pronoun for a transman. I didn't do it on purpose... sometimes it's really hard to mentally assign a new pronoun when you've known someone for years upon years. Sometimes it's just a brainfart, I don't mean any harm at all and I feel terribly every time it happens.

I'm pretty sure most trans people (or most sensible ones, anyway) can tell the difference between accidental slip-ups and genuine attacks on their gender identity. People who can easily switch their perception of someone's gender are actually in the minority, so anyone who gets ragey every single time they get called by the wrong pronoun is probably being irrational.

wish I could believe this but the outrageous HANG 'EM HIGH attitudes of some of the carpet lickers that are 'supposedly' on the transgender side are making it hard for me to believe this at all.

Serious exaggeration and misrepresentation of what's been said in this thread.
