    Sorry, I identify as somebody pronouning on visual sex and not gender. Purely as a language thing for my own selfish convenience, nb. I’m not denying the gender-spectrum, nor do I want anybody to change who they want to be! Luckily for me people transitioning usually start looking like their prefered gender, so I will usually automatically change my pronoun along the way to the correct one. Well, except for the “they/them’s”, which will never sound right for me cause my language fixed it in a different way for us already: singular unknown is by rule always “He”, while plural unknown is the same word as what we use for “She”. So even if I say “They” in my language, I’m still just saying “she” anyway. 😅

    Anyway, I totally respect any gender on the spectrum being what they are and wish everybody the peace of mind to be able to be what they want to be; but I’m just not into the whole “must ask the person, whom might not even be there at the time, first what they randomly prefer”-concept some people make of it… 😬 Everybody’s free to use their own words to refer to stuff from their pov, imho… Nothing gives anyone the right to force their ways upon others… 🤷‍♂️ I’d for example also rather be referred to as ‘handsome’ than ‘weirdo’, but that choice and decision is not mine to make either. 😂

    Anyway, no harm intended with this, nor any bad intent to any person or their believes in gender. You are free to be who you want to be and how you want to be that, but so does everybody else. 😉
