#DISCLAIMER. obviously nonhumans are not oppressed like queer people are and that is NOT what I am saying at all.

ive been thinking about this for a while and y'know. there isn't actually a big difference between someone asking you not to refer to them as human and someone asking you to use gender neutral language for them. ive seen fellow queer people (mostly on twitter) whine and scream and shit their pants over being asked to not call someone human, as if that is somehow different from a transphobe throwing a fit about being asked to use singular they for someone? how often does that even come up? do you seriously refer to others often enough with the word "human" that being asked not to is a major inconvenience? I don't know how to finish this post but you get the idea it's hypocritical and annoying

#DISCLAIMER. obviously nonhumans are not oppressed like queer people are and that is NOT what I am saying at all. #but in most cases you can replace the word “person” with “individual“ and ”people“ with ”others“ #obviously not always exactly those but you get the idea #it is not harder than changing the pronouns and terms you use for someone #coming from someone who does struggle with learning to use neopronouns quickly I understand if it *is* genuinely hard for you of course #but in my experience thats rarely the case and more often than not its just people being willfully disrespectful #therian #therianthropy #otherkin #EDIT ive muted this so if you try to start discourse with me I will Not see it
