It's not "playing pretend" when: A) Someone passes perfectly as female B) Using "he" would be actively difficult since it's the masculine pronoun, and Blaire is not masculine. https://twitter.com/realjujuhound/status/930239763977768963 …

trans people who don't pass are not "playing pretend" either

The tweet was deleted, but the "playing pretend" part was in reference to the people (like me) using the pronouns and "enabling mental illness" or something, not the trans individuals themselves. I was being accused of playing pretend, not Blaire.

I see what you're saying, but even if someone doesn't pass *to you* (& passing is a terrible criterion because it's totally subjective), it doesn't mean you're "pretending" when you use their pronouns. You're simply acknowledging their ID, not lying about how you perceive them.

Yeah, I agree, and I don't have a problem using pronouns regardless of passing, but the argument being made by these conservatives that to EVER use a trans person's pronouns is just PC culture is ridiculous. They're going OUT OF THEIR WAY to misgender.

That's what I was at least trying to say ha, sorry if it didn't come across clearly
