i totally get it my friend, but you are not being dramatic. it is the bare minimum of basic human decency to refer to someone in ways they prefer. i’m sending you love and support from a friendly t-boy 🩵

Im fine with feminine nicknames being used gender neutrally, ie go piss girl, hi sisters (mocking james charles), etc. It’s the uwu soft bean shit aimed at trans men that I can’t stand. Call me dude, guy, man — great. Anything with the word “boy” — no, I’m 20. Anything with the word little/lil — no, I’m 5’10”. i fucking hate the infantilization of trans men way more than I hate casual phrases that have traditionally feminine names/words that are entirely non-personal to me.

My spouse was at the emergency vet with our dog and repeatedly said “my husband is on his way” when I got there they turned to me and said “mom, we need a signature” while I do respect pet parents using the mom/dad labels, I think the vet calling a person a parent is a bit odd without hearing the person refer to themselves that way, but also it was stated several times that I am a guy 🫩 Also while my partner and I do call ourselves our dog’s dads, our dog knows our names, not “dad”
