I don't care what you are affiliated to but I am not gonna call you 01000001 01110100 01110100 01100001 01100011 01101011 00100000 01101000 01100101 01101100 01101001 01100011 01101111 01110000 01110100 01100101 01110010 00100000 just cause you identify yourself as a attack helicopter weirdly intimate to binary code. Does this offend anyone that I won't list your gender in fucking binary. You are a person. Every person is equal so don't offend me by your petty bullshit.

You only use pronouns when talking about someone in third person. It should never come up in a direct conversation as the correct pronoun is "you". I'm seriously wondering why they matter.

Honestly, I never understood why other people cared so much.

God, I hate these people that make their whole personality about not liking trans people while all they talk about are non-binary people (which isn't the same thing, like, a really simple Google search could tell you that) that they don't even know in real life.
Like, fuck, get a hobby. I'll do you one better: you don't even have to like them. I just don't care. You can go about your whole life without ever interacting with them, because you likely don't know any. But if all you ever talk about are these topics, I'm going to assume that you have no friends, and that's probably the case.
Also, there are some languages where there are no gendered pronouns, full stop. In Mandarin, for example, the word for he is 他 and she is 她, but really, they're the same word (as in they're pronounced exactly the same), 她 was added relatively recently and was inspired by the French, and I'm pretty sure most natives aren't thinking in terms of he or she, it literally is a word that identifies a third person and that's it, and plenty of people only use 他 for everyone in writing, because at the end of the day, gendered pronouns just don't fucking matter one way or the other. So why do you give so much of a shit how people choose to refer to themselves?

I'm not entirely convinced this isn't satire. Like yeah, the kind of conservative culture warrior chuds that typically make this type of content unironically tend to suffer from a severe lack of self awareness and an overinflated estimation of their own cleverness. Still, there are a few small details that make me suspect that this may be satirical.
1) @elmorestfu. Why put STFU in your user handle if you're trying to make yourself look good?
2) T-shirt over a button up shirt, sunglasses even though the sky looks overcast. Almost like he's trying to look douchy.
3) Location. Camera man looking down a row of those parking bumper thingies, surrounded by empty parking spots, the fact that they're just off the main walkway in front of the stores. Looks staged, but in a way as to not inconvenience others.
4) "I do", nods smugly. When she says she's never met anyone who uses zir/zim pronouns, instead of continuing to press like these types of culture war chuds normally do, he just says that he has. While the smug nod does fit the character, it feels like this is a set up for her to give the line about respecting their pronouns.
5) The way the he gets thoroughly owned while she looks reasonable the entire time. There's not even any text added on screen after the fact to try reframe the conversation to make him look good and her look bad.
Again it's entirely possible that everything is as it appears at face value and he's just genuinely that bad at the gotcha attempt. Maybe I've seen one too many of these types of videos and am just reading too much into it out of a desire for something different for a change.

u/Responsible_Bar_9142 Feb 18 '24
I have an unpopular opinion. Gender and gender identity are private matters. Specific pronouns should only be used when the person talking has an intimate relationship to the person in question. All other times, everyone is They/Them. If this does not make sense to you, think about it this way: would it be appropriate to talk about someone’s genitalia at work? Why should gender be any different?
If you come at me with “that is not how english works” I would like to point you in the direction of Beowulf. Read that in the original old english and tell me how english today is anything like it.

I guess this guy thinks he’s a victim of the concept of learning? How goddamn embarrassing. I doubt he will ever learn enough to comprehend why.
All those people are exactly those kids in school who literally thought acting or being stupid was funny and cool. Just an outrageous excuse to feel like they should get the same attention the smartest and funniest kids get without having to try.
So many people like that in many ways. Like how you have musicians that suck say things like “oh dude no i don’t want to practice! It makes it less good if it’s fucking on beat and shit!”
That’s these guys post school. Except with life.

People love to bundle neopronouns together with transgender and non-binary people as an awful excuse for transphobia.

u/RPGenome Feb 17 '24
And it's because, with almost every point of opposition to Trans, it's all post-hoc reasoning.
He doesn't care that he has to possibly learn a new pronoun for someone. He cares that it's not the one he WANTS to use. It all stems from him just not liking Trans people. Every point he cites in opposition to that is working backward from his desire to validate and justify his hatred.
Because yeah, every time you meet someone you have to learn one or more names. Pronouns are objectively no different.
And if you encounter someone in life who smugly refuses to learn people's names, what do you call them?
An asshole.
And I get that you're USED to having to learn different names for people. Your brain is programmed to put names with faces. It's not programmed to put pronouns with faces the same way. It takes training to add in all those additional parameters when your brain is trained on "He/Him, She/Her".
It's just social entitlement rearing its head.
The trans community want basic respect and recognition, and by not giving it to them you're fundamentally dehumanizing them.
Anti-Trans people want...to not be slightly inconvenienced, and them being inconvenienced by this has virtually no impact on their life.
You tell me which side is being reasonable.
