    Every trans person I have ever met uses he or she.

    NBs use they.

    I’ve literally gotten in brawls defending trans people where I was the only person using their preferred pronouns and this pissed off a whole gaggle of people who were assaulting them.

    Your argument was that I could potentially kill (apparently you were referring only to trans?) people by not using their preferred pronouns.

    Not only is that not a thing I do, not only are you incapable of understanding my apparently too nuanced position for you, I have literally done the inverse of what you claim of me, and have risked my life specifically over properly using a trans person’s pronouns, and may have saved their life.

    Do you remember when I said your view of the history of magic, along with your rhetorical tactics, are quite similar to fascism techniques?

    I guess not.

      You’ve never met a trans enby? Dayum, so sheltered! You should try getting out there and meeting more queer people than just your little bubble.
