transcription: saying “male to female” instead of just trans woman is like referring to fully grown people as “baby to adult”. ahh… so you used to be a baby??? are you telling be you were BORN a baby… but then… hormones turned you into an adult? nice try. giant baby
Or how about just WOMAN and leave it at that? I didn’t transition to be trans, ya know…
this, unless the conversation is about my transition just call me a woman
Yeah, I just refer to people as their preferred pronouns? Like it’s pretty easy. I just have to repeat what they tell me. If I don’t know their pronouns I just use the ancient secret technique of calling them by their name…crazy I know.
piefed user in_my_honest_opinion knowledgeable on the way to refer someone by name pleases ✕⍯ greatly. Perhaps form strong bond continued grammar over? 🤜🫷
I just don’t know any scenario where anyone would specify trans woman or male to female unless someone was self identifying on the internet.
I think I have the equivalence of facial blindness for gender, so I really know not to make assumptions greater than something like dresses are usually worn by people presenting as feminine. But then again I am really out of touch with fashion, so I’m not even totally confident about that.
Maybe some people make a habit of clocking people in public? But I honestly don’t know how anyone goes about doing so with any confidence. A while ago people were using their pronouns when introducing themselves at my work and that was soo helpful for me, now I just avoid pronouns all together unless people use them in front of me first.
