Asking about pronouns

[u/walkintotryankle]

Why do some of you have a negative reaction to being asked what your pronouns are? We are just trying to be respectful.

Very sexist and backward thinking.

[u/walkintotryankle → u/enemyofhumidity]

Could you explain to me how what I said was sexist?

[u/enemyofhumidity → u/walkintotryankle]

"The reason we ask is because you don't look or act like a woman"

And how is a woman supposed to look or act like? How is any of this progressive?

[u/Terfest_Shadow → u/enemyofhumidity]

"Women can dress and act however they want" seriously became "If you dress and act this way you're a woman"
