      @@AnObviousMjolnir i agree. If you intentionally trigger someone's ptsd, you're an asshole. But expecting nobody to ever wear blue again? You're a jerk too. The more general the trigger, the less right you have to complain. It also matters if the person even knew you had triggers. My brother gives me trigger warnings for everything before I watch it, I tell him I dont need him to unless its XYZ. But there are smaller details he doesn't know will trigger me, sometimes I dont know it will either. He gets upset and never stops apologizing, I use those exact words. I have to deal with it. That's on me. Likewise, I trigger him sometimes. Usually it's stuff that, if I thought before I spoke, I would not have said. He cringes, I apologize and make sure he's OK, we move on.

      My son (daughter?) came out to me as trans a few weeks ago and has begun hormone therapy. She’s seemed distant over the past year and now says this is what she’s been dealing with. She doesn’t talk a lot, so at this point (her therapist and) I just have to trust that she’s correctly identifying her feelings of dysphoria. The fact that any inkling of questioning her, reads as me not supporting her transition, makes it *really* difficult to know how similar her experience may be to the extreme dysphoria I felt at her age (17). Back then, it wouldn’t have occurred to me that I might have been born the wrong gender for my sex. All I know is that I honestly thought she was “all boy,” in every way, while she was growing up. She still dresses the same now, and says she’s just a tomboy. Sometimes I feel like I’m jumping off a cliff, knowing that all I can do is support her but not having any idea where we will land.

      You’re male, female, or somewhere inbetween or none
      Genderfluid and polyamous in my opinion is valid but shouldn’t be considered a gender or sexuality since ‘genderfluid’ isn’t a specific gender and ‘polyamory’ doesn’t describe what gender you’re into but more of how many people you date at a time

    I think for a lot of young people especially, attaching these labels to themselves makes them feel special. Like, they are saying, my inner self is so complex and so unique that the English language just can't define it. So they pick these "neo pronouns" to feel special. Blair, you hit the nail on the head when you said it is based in narcissism. I also think there is a certain amount of social currency that comes with identifying with a victim or being part of an historically victimized group.

      Agreed.

They want to feel special and want to label themselves like ''pizzaself'' or ''kittyself'' which is weird. More ridiculous is when they force others to call them by those ''pronouns''.

      Actually the craze about pronouns exists in real life too, i have received numerous email from HR asking me 'if i want to put pronouns' on my email signature. I ignored most of them until i actually answered back, asking them to leave me alone, i know i have the option if i want to so stop harassing me.
      This wasn't a couple of years ago.
      Also, Argentina has now recognised non binary people as an separate gender category and offers passports etc under X category. Of course, Argentina has one woman murdered a day and rape crimes are though the roof but who cares, the important thing is that delusional people can feel validated.

    I use they/them pronouns and even I think that neopronouns are kind of out of control, like, your favorite animal or color isn’t a gender. I don’t think it’s too crazy to have she/her, he/him, and they/them. That’s only three options.
    Myself and a few others I know don’t get offended by people assuming binary pronouns like “she“ or “he” (mostly “she” for me) because how are they supposed to know? It’s natural for most people to want to assign a gender to someone even if they look ambiguous. On a rational level I don’t think I need to be offended by someone who “assumes my gender” 🤷🏼. It’s just annoying when people have to throw a huge tantrum over someone using they/them pronouns.

      @em !

I hope that answers your question :)

    • @clairecosio
      @clairecosio 3 года назад +9

      @em ! yeah, that's a great question! everyone's gender is different and is basically apart of your personality, so it's kind of like thinking about and part of your personality. you kinda know if you're introverted or extroverted, and gender is similar (in my opinion). it's like there is some part of you that just knows where you fit in (or don't fit in) even if it takes a while to find out the term for it. gender dysphoria also is a good indicator, though not all transgender people experience that

      See, in real life if someone announced that their pronouns were bun/bunself they’d be laughed out of it. But thanks to the internet, people can find obscure communities online of like-minded people who affirm and encourage their weird behaviours and who end up normalising it.
      So when that person is back in the real world, they’re confronted by the reality that their behaviour isn’t universally socially accepted. And so they feel attacked and run back to their online community where they can feel coddled and safe. It’s a cycle. Same goes for any kind of extremist who’s radicalised online.

These people really need to understand that gender and sexuality aren't something you just suddenly call yourself, It's something you realize about yourself, and how you handle that realization is your choice, as much as I support being yourself and doing whatever makes you happy I think making new labels for literally everything damages the community and segregates us further.

It’s nice to see a trans person who’s openly saying that being trans shouldn’t be a fun, stylish new label, and that people need to be able to deal with their personal issues.
    I’m autistic, but I’m more well-adjusted to social settings than most in the spectrum, and I would attribute that at least partially to not getting QUITE enough support to grow up with a normal amount of challenge.

      @@vegainthestreets ok yeah, but giving a content warning for if a movie or TV show has animal cruelty or sexual violence or something is a different matter entirely from having a break-down because a friend has the color blue in their house.
      Like, I have an animal cruelty trigger (for lack of a better term), among other things. I got into Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, got hit REALLY hard with Part 1 Episode 1, and really wish someone warned me about it ahead of time. (Season 2 (aka, Part 3) onward the animal cruelty elements come back, but I was engaging more with the community and came in fully prepared). So I know how important something like that can be.
      That being said, I am under no disillusion about people going a little too widespread and honestly authoritarian with their triggers. Little "triggered" didn't become a meme because of assholes just feeling like making fun of mental trauma... it's because the people who consider themselves advocates made memes out of themselves in the first place. Note how I said "content warning" instead of "trigger warning" a while back? That's because the whole issue has been made such a farce that I choose to not engage with that vocabulary, even with matters as politically neutral as this that I feel I can believe in. I feel like I invite mockery if I use the term "trigger warning", so I say "content warning" in its place when applicable. 100% I blame the people who lose their shit over THEIR "color blue" and put that weight on the people around them, making anyone else with these struggles look bad, tbh.

Imagine if all people who were depressed and had anxiety never went to therapy and were told by others that their feelings and behaviour is okay, “suicidal thoughts and all the other side effects are totally fine, just live with it” etc. Clearly that wouldn’t be okay and would cause more harm. The same with dysphoria. Why all of a sudden should people cater to your psychological issues? If you don’t want to associate yourself with being a woman or man, if you hate your biological sex etc, you need help. You need to resolve those issues and speak about what caused it.

      What are we doing to our children? We are just creating a circus of confusing labels and words to describe what we can't. We are all different, and a label shouldn't be important. I had trouble coming to terms with the fact that I'm gay, because I don't want that label slapped on me. There is more to me than "gay". It's literally the smallest part of my being. But other people seem to be desperately grabbing for labels. And for what? All we are doing is making it so confusing and messy for our children that they won't be able to work out what their sexuality or gender is, because we've placed so much doubt in their minds. Kids who never would have questioned if they'd been born in past generations will now start to soul search and attach labels to themselves that aren't necessary or accurate. It's not fair that we are creating so much confusion for them.

    As a non-binary myself, I hate how some people get so offended over people using their wrong pronouns. I doubt asking people to walk into a room and announce their pronouns is the right way to go. I don't do it, it's just not practical. Maybe if I was in an icebreaker I would mention me being non-binary, but like in most things, mentioning gender doesn't matter.

My problem is when they get ANGRY and start attacking the person who misgendered them. If I’m ever talking to someone who uses neopronouns, chances are I’ll either use they/them if they’re fine with it, or just not talk to them at all😐😐
