It was literally all over every newsfeed with any interests even tangentially connected to gender or comics in the summer, and it was posted in the ukmt at the time as well

Well I know now and will use them in future. Bit poo poo to be so needlessly hostile about it though.

I am with Rumda on this one. I don't think it was particularly aggressive anyway.

It was a needlessly hostile way to deal with it by Rumda when it’s clear Jose didn’t even know but let’s cut Rumda some slack - trans people get a poo poo deal so let’s not pile on.

E: do you consider accidental misgendering, when the person literally didn’t know that the person had recently switched pronouns, to be a micro aggression? I feel that’s a little harsh.

Isn't that literally the definition of microaggression where you do something small and likely unintentional that nonetheless contributes to an unpleasant atmosphere?

Yes of course it is, if you do it knowing their preferred pronouns then it's a straight up full aggression

I have no idea who Grant Morisson even are, and no I'm too lazy to google.

Given that I spend significant time reading news every day I'd argue it wasn't all over them.

Yeah, but I assumed that required it being literally possible for the person to do otherwise. Sorry I’m not calling for people to have psychic knowledge/an hourly updated ledger of every famous person they might talk about’s pronouns.

Does changing your pronouns to they them make you trans?

Genuine question I wouldn't have thought of someone who just asks to be called that as trans
Are all NB people considered trans not cis?
