ok I think the thing about genderpeople that *actually* bothers me is that I feel not allowed to use my own gender framework around them. I honestly don't give a shit how they present, how deviant from gender norms they are, whether they wear makeup or a boy cut. (1/6)

the "genderpeople" are usually the first people tell people they don't have to do x to be x gender because we know what it's like to have that sort of stuff pushed on us though. Also, please don't call us that, it's about as disrespectful as alphabet people

I'm happy to find a different term! I want a term that summarizes "People who strongly support the gender framework that treats gender as a self-identification", so if you have a more respectful one you suggest I'm glad to move to it. I used 'genderpeople' cause it felt neutral.

I used that term because I'd never heard it before so I figured it'd be free of associations. But 'normal people' is waaay too vague to communicate what I'm trying to; I'm looking for a term for "enbies, trans, and cis people who are very serious about preferred pronouns"

genderpeople is incredibly vague as it can easily just be interpreted as a slur for trans people or just someone that has a gender, which is most people.

well like i said im happy to use whatever term works, I'm not attached to the terms I use, my goal is communication not being a stickler about vocabulary
