NBC News: ‘Legal documents requesting a name change for Westman say she identified as female.’ I took that as proof but maybe not. I agree the maga cult will blame the trans community. The pronouns we use won’t change that. Isn’t it more respectful to see a trans woman as a woman?

Good question! I looked at the descriptor but it ruined my joke so I ignored it 🤣😂

Is that better? I was easing into it so it didn’t immediately alienate. Many of us talk a big game about loving and respecting transgender people (and other marginalized groups), but are quick to excuse our own missteps when the shit hits the fan. There… that’s what I wanted to say. I feel better.
fletchffletch.bsky.social (@fletchffletch.bsky.social) reply parent
You are right. In times of tragedy, which will draw the MOST readership from those that choose to not recognize transgender people, those of us who do should stop caring about gendering them correctly? That is stupid and frankly an excuse. It validates the ignorant. Be that person if you wish.
fletchffletch.bsky.social (@fletchffletch.bsky.social) reply parent
If that’s how you see it. I started my original post with ‘this may seem pedantic given the real story’, and you chose to express that it was to you. I shared my view. I suppose we can just leave it at that. Also HOAs are the devil 👿
fletchffletch.bsky.social (@fletchffletch.bsky.social) reply parent
Of course this is a terrible tragedy! AND it was committed by a woman. These are the kinds of situations that test our (at least my) beliefs versus our actions. If you don’t agree with correctly gendering trans people, you can just say that. It is your right. I choose to hold both concepts at once.
fletchffletch.bsky.social (@fletchffletch.bsky.social) reply parent
Not about that at all. It is about supporting other trans men and women by honoring that a trans woman is a woman. She even legally changed her name. Ignoring that fact has nothing to do with the act she committed.
fletchffletch.bsky.social (@fletchffletch.bsky.social) reply parent
This may seem pedantic based on the real story, but Robin was a trans woman and therefore she/her would be more appropriate. Based on the comment sections of this and other posts, I am surprised Bluesky users haven’t been more progressive in their use of pronouns.
