    [x] Doubt

    Even if you disagree, using a pronoun is just polite. She’d have to go out of her way to do this.

      Start misgendering him and see how frustrated he gets.

      You can’t not use pronouns. It’s about using the correct ones. Why do some people think pronouns are new? “You” is a pronoun, for example. It has nothing to do with gender.

        Not sure why you assume this? I never made the claim

          It may have just been a typo, but I’m seen far too many people who think pronouns are a modern invention that has to do with gender identity. Sorry if it was just a mistake.

            It’s not a typo, I just lazily wrote the comment like I’d speak.
