    *they

    the researcher’s pronouns and such are unknown at this time as they have remained anonymous

    assuming male as default for everyone leads to trans people getting misgendered and is just generally a shitty out-of-touch thing to do

      I don’t mind being corrected, but calling an honest mistake a shitty thing to do makes me just want to get defensive and not be receptive to what you’re actually saying.

      Have you considered the possibility that aggressively interjecting pronoun arguments into unrelated conversations and implying people are shitty and out of touch is eroding public support for trans rights?
