      If your gender identity doesn’t dump the entire concept of binary gender into a burning garbage can you should just give it back, you’re obviously not doing anything worthwhile with it.

        On a practical level, defaulting to pronouns is still supportive of people struggling to fit their identity into the existing binary. My opinions on gender, while 100% unimpeachably correct, come from a position of privilege within the existing structure. Gender is like the stock market, it’s all imaginary bullshit but it still impacts pretty much every aspect of your life.
