The whole non-binary/pronoun thing is driving me insane

Using “they” is incredibly easy and comes naturally to even native English speakers.
I know this because I see them use it for singular individuals all the time whether they be a “preferred pronoun” or not.
It’s just now people try to act like it’s impossible just to be irritating and defiant.

Quit being such a brat over it mate, do you get this upset when a dude named Johnson wants to be called John ?
Do you refuse to use the ‘correct’ Ms/Mrs, which depends on marriage status, when referring to a woman ?
Do you get upset when people refer to someone of seniority as Sir, or Ma’am ?
Is the practice of using terms like “excuse me”, “please”, “thank you”, “bless you” too much effort for you ?
These are all simple social rules based on “imaginary” standards of politeness. If you want to be an ass, be an ass, but don’t expect people to like you.

Ask yourself why cant you accept this? Then ask why again and keep going until you get to the root problem. This isn't about them, its about you. Accepting life is the fastest way to peace.

My gay friends don't support the non binary stuff at all nor do I.

There was a girl at the store my friend worked at, her coworker that was working with her was gender fluid. One day she'd literally announce "my pronouns are they/him" and the literal next day I kid you not she would say "today I'm she/her" and the next day "he/him" etc. My friend in her 30s and her older coworkers in their 50s just kept referring to her as her because that's what she is and she got so angry she had a nervous breakdown.

My friend literally said to a customer "she can help you on register 2" and the non binary gender fluid nonsense girl who was using he/him that day made a scene saying today she was identifying as male.

Imagine this a woman in her 70s comes up to your register, you're counting money and you tell the woman "sorry ma'am I'm closed go to the man at register 2" when the person standing at register 2 is a female with boobs.. MAKES NO SENSE.

Easiest solution is to keep your distance from those things.

Yeah I agree

just start callin em that and thus and thee and thou and thine or whatever then claim forgetfulness / confusion

if youre gonna quit you might as well have some fun with it

and on the way out let em know exactly what you said here

I have special reasons to hold bias against those who are non binary and trans. Why?

Having three sex chromosomes and thus being medically intersex is the primary.

Klienfelters gets brought up in EVERY GOD DAMN conversation as a "what if?" Question. As the "example" for why nonbinary and trans is a rational concept because of the existence of a mutation.

I am genetically, physically closer to the other sex than 99% of the non binary/transpeople. Yet here I am as a male, in a mostly male body. No dysmorphia here.

Making it 100% a mental issue. If it was a physucal issue wouldnt I be suffering under is effects?

If you are an adult fine. Do whatever with your body. But don't come indoctrinating children into thinking being trans is cool when in all likelyhood they could just be gay and confused about their sexuality. That winds you up on my shit list fast.

I know the feeling.
If you appear to be a man, I assume you are a man.
If you appear to be a woman, I assume you are a woman.
It's been that way for 1,000's of years.
I can't read minds to know what anyone "self-identifies" as unless they wearing a sign.

I believe people have a right to use whatever pronouns they want, but you also have a right to feel uncomfortable with that. Different strokes for different folks. Sadly most places are not open to healthy debate and negotiation, so if you can find a better job, move on. If you can't, try to politely reduce your interactions with these coworkers without making it too obvious.

Uh, actually, I can relate to these people.

I identify as a narwhal whale and my pronouns are nar/whal. I expect people to call me by pronouns.

I don’t really notice it all.

Making an honest mistake because somebody doesn't pass as the opposite gender shouldn't be grounds for punishment or getting fired. But that's where we're at

Certainly the reality of the situation feels oppressive; there’s lots of things in life that can feel that way. The heat in Texas, oppressive. Another person telling me what I can and should not say, can feel controlling, which can also feel oppressive. Unless one is willing to submit to the circumstances in life, which is unavoidable at times but I best hope most people try not to. My point: I will fight it because it makes me feel a certain way; the moment I stopped fighting it means either I’ve given up or I’ve succomb to the reality of the situation and there is little to much I can do about it, and then it may not feel so oppressive anymore.

I been talking to this dude on discord for like 2 years now while I'm trucking everyday and the other day he just argued in support of how they're teaching kids this gender bullshit in schools. I cant talk to dude anymore. I can not respect anyone who wants to teach this shit to impressionable kids. To me its even worse than being a p3d0. You should be beaten severely.

yeah fuck that shit
