Y’all know that trans people don’t actually get pissed off and start yelling when we get accidentally misgendered or people use the wrong pronouns, right? We might be secretly peeved or even politely correct someone but we never go off the rails and start screaming. We can’t afford to do that. It literally puts us in danger. No trans person fulfills the “did you just assume my gender!?” stereotype. That’s made up. Chill.
