Im cis gender and have been mistaken for a different gender many times. It never bothered me bc my identity is not dependent upon concepts like gender, masculinity, or femininity. They’re often treated as rigid boxes that people are forced to fit into. I’d rather see ppl free to be themselves without wanting to conform to expectations or labels created by others who are uncomfortable with ambiguity or individuality. And just realise sometimes others won’t accept them and leave it at that.

sorry but you’ve never experienced dysphoria and frankly should not be using your own experiences to downplay something you’ve never felt

Pronouns are generally an important part of someone’s identity. They help communicate that strong internal identity. Using someone’s correct pronouns shows you care about them and want them to feel comfortable/safe around you. Changing pronouns is an important part of transitioning, so if you actually care about that person you’ll use their new/correct pronouns. Misgendering someone intentionally, cis or trans, is just disrespectful in general and shows a lack of empathy/care for them

“Dysphoria is a feeling of unease or unhappiness that can happen with mental health issues like depression or anxiety.” I have experienced this with my body(not dysmorphia) and I also have bipolar disorder. So yes I have experienced dysphoria

I’m allowed to have an opinion too, you’re not the only one who has rights. It’s people like you that make me ashamed to apart of the lgbtqia community. Instead of excluding people and saying their opinions don’t matter, maybe you should take a DEI and Team Training course. Bc clearly you purposefully missed the inclusive part of the course.

So me experiencing dissatisfaction and wishing a part of my body was different is not similar at all? Or the fact that I’ve been told many many times the things I do are not ladylike and need to cut it out bc men are the only ones who are supposed to act that way?

its not relevant. Your own experience are not relevant in respecting other’s pronouns

you are treating your experience as a cis person like the epitome of how trans people experience dysphoria. you aren’t even trans. you do not experience dysphoria in the same way. people have severe, life-threatening mental illnesses CAUSED by dysphoria, not just appearing alongside it. please realize how you are speaking for trans people when multiple trans people are telling you that you can’t.

Yes I was hospitalised for mine, always assuming things. So I’m supposed to respect a community and our people who tell people they can’t have an opinion. Most people haven’t experienced death so therefore can’t have an opinion on it. When y’all can be a place that actually provides a safe space for people, then you can earn my respect. But I have no respect for people who are closed minded and demand respect for their own rights but forget about the rights of others.

what rights are you being denied here again?

you realize that the only people who actually know what death feels like is people who’ve died… right? have you died? then how tf are you gonna have an “opinion” on how that feels? even trans people shouldn’t shit on others just because they don’t feel the same way. you’re insulting people when you do NOT understand how they feel. and it doesn’t matter if you were hospitalized, you admitted your mental illness WASN’T caused by dysphoria. even if it was, you shouldn’t talk shit.

My dad was declared dead bc he died and ended up being saved almost too late. So uhm I think your reasoning is flawed and very outdated get with the times man didn’t you see the article where “4 people died and came back. This is what they saw.”

Anonymous amethyst_pill74 13h

you still don’t know how every single individual person who’s died feels lmao, so stop acting like you do. also tf is this red herring, stfu and listen to the people who actually experience dysphoria around pronouns instead of saying “well IIIII didn’t feel that so YOUUU must not have either” 💀

went on a crazy rant about "you people" and how you're embarrassed to be part of the queer community because people told you you don't experience gender dysphoria, by the way

Well that’s tuff kid, I am the star of my own life so it’s always relevant. We all deserve respect, but demanding it, and then treating others like crap is shameful behavior. Our community is so hateful and even to our own ppl. I’m glad we decided to force our ideologies, just like societal norms did to us, instead of seeking neutral grounds. I’m proud to be gay, I’ll fight tooth and nail for everyone regardless what I believe, but some of these commenters are the reason why some don’t accept us
