    and that’s the problem, people clearly are not extending common courtesy to trans people

    so should we just let it go and let deadnaming and misgenderinh happen rather than actually making it part of the rules because its clearly neccesary?

        aha so I guess basic rights and common courtesy and all that don’t matter when it comes to trans people, got it

            Its clearly not common courtesy when it doesn’t happen when it comes to trans people. They are not given this supposed “common courtesy” That means trans folks are seen as sub-human and I do think we should make a rule of not othering/dehumanizing a group of people in such a way

                so trans people should continue to actively be discriminated against by not being treated as the people they actually are because fighting that discrimination is not curing the symptom? weird take.
