- calling someone by their current name/pronouns isn't a chore or a charity service. it's normal behaviour. if i went up to a random cis girl and called her james and used he/him you'd see how wrong that is, so don't misgender trans people just because you can't take 5 seconds out of your time to check their name and pronouns. and also, just because someone is a piece of shit doesn't mean you can misgender them. by misgendering someone, no matter how shitty or problematic they may be, you are basically admitting that you view their gender identity and pronouns as nothing more than a game, and you can only play along if they play along nicely.

- the fact that things like 'down with cis' are actually seen as a possibility is ridiculous. you are all so quick to throw trans people under the bus, to paint us as evil monsters just because you need an excuse that you'll believe anything-- things as ridiculous as an entire bus full of trans people wearing shirts that say 'down with cis' and beating up random cis people for the hell of it.

- dear cis people: stop calling trans people-- namely nonbinary trans people-- attention wh*res or transtrenders or any other vile term like that. afab demigirls, amab demiboys, amab masculine nonbinary people and afab feminine nonbinary people are just as nonbinary as transfeminine and transmasculine nonbinary people. we do not have to conform to your ideology of gender and how you perceive it.

- you don't have to be bi/pan/etc. do date a trans person. if you are a straight girl or a gay boy and you date a trans boy, guess what, you're still a straight girl/gay boy! by saying you have to be bi/pan/etc. to date trans people you are admitting that you view trans people as a different gender entirely, which is cisnormative and transphobic and downright disgusting.

- more than 50% of trans people try to kill themselves before the age of 20. these are /children/, killing themselves because of the fact that their gender is constantly portrayed as a joke or a negative thing or an illness in a media. stop trying to compare a trans kid going "i hate cis people lol" on the internet to the fact that the trans life expectancy is more than half of that of a cis person.

- stop gendering items such as tampons, condoms, etc. girls sometimes buy condoms for themselves. boys sometimes buy tampons for themselves. items aren't inherently gendered, and neither is someone's genitals or body. get over it.

- they/them pronouns have existed since fucking forever. they pronouns were first cited in 1526, however they have been in use longer. shakespeare, jane austen, william makepeace, etc. all used they/them pronouns in a singular context. nonbinary genders have existed since the beginning of civilization and ignoring that is contributing to a cisnormative and binarist western society.
