Nonbinary student corrects teacher who refuses to use correct pronouns in the most brilliant way
Over at tiktok a nonbinary student, Shade, told their professor why her refusal to use their correct pronouns was completely unacceptable. In an email they wrote:
I’m sorry, I think there was a misunderstanding here. You seem to think I’m making some kind of request? I was just informing you of my correct name and pronouns so you know how to refer to me.
Intentionally misgendering a student is actively creating a hostile environment and discriminating on the basis of gender identity. That goes against the school’s nondiscrimination statement. I know you wouldn’t want to do that.
I’m sure you understand that I expect to be treated with at least basic levels of respect and human decency in the classroom. I look forward to meeting you in class next week and working with you through the semester. Regards, Shade (they/them)
LGBTQ Nation reports that Shade says that they are fighting so that other non-binary and trans students won’t have to go through the same thing:
“I’m less concerned with what happens between this individual teacher and myself and more concerned with what happens school-wide, because personally, I have support. I’m not somebody who is going to be super broken up about it, but I know that’s not the case for a lot of trans students. In fact, for a lot of trans students, it might be that school is the only place where they could possibly get gendered correctly.”
hi!! I got my first binder today and I just really wanted to share because I'm just so excited!! my gender euphoria has been through the roof today hgjfklkd;
Hi, uhhhhh how long is it reasonable to have to wait for insurance to ok top surgery?
this is usually dependent on things like your personal insurance company and the surgeon you are looking at, so i dont know. if you are worried or want to check i would recommend calling your insurance company
Could I get a pronoun validation? My name is Oliver, but I also go by Aura. My pronouns are he/him, it/its, and fae/faer. I'd like to also try out ey/em and maybe xe/xhr?
Oliver is a cool person. It likes to hang out with faer friends, even though ey can’t right now. Aura is hoping to get to see xhr friends soon, so xe can try out these new pronouns
so who wants some binders?? i have four of various sizes and i also have some transtape if someone wants that youd have to give me an address to ship it to obviously dm me which one u want pics below! the medium one and the large half one are pretty worn out but theyre def usable and the large tan one and the xl black one were worn like once so ! first come first served !
