its in my signature. I know you can see it. Its in PURE bold. It makes me want to CRY when I get called SHE or GIRL or whatever. I'm fed up... IS it really all that hard to not mention gender in a sentence? If you have to "they" fits in real nice, or use my name!!!!!!!

I'm so sorry you are having that experience. *hugs* I'm also very sorry if I have ever misgendered you. Even though I use gender neutral pronouns daily I'm still socialized to be gender specific. I'm looking forward to the day when gender isn't such a big deal. I truly believe that it is coming.

In case you don't know, when I use my phone on vertical/profile mode I can't read your signature. When I turn it horizontal then I can. I use my phone on vertical 99+% of the time and I suspect there are other members who do as well. I'm absolutely not trying to excuse unacceptable behavior. Homophobic or transphobic behavior is never ok. I'm just saying that there may be some people that don't know you prefer to use they/them because their phones are vertical.

That makes more sense. The people who do it a lot, I tell them, and they still don't. But it makes sense that the majority of people just don't see it

The people who misgender you intentionally are completely out of line. *hugs*

I know I'm a stranger, but I support you. Whatever path is best for you.

Most of the time even I don't see your signature despite the fact that I'm on a computer and it's in plain sight
