I would like you to address me as 'Arch Btw' from this point forward, thank you.

I'd classify the kind of people that put their pronouns in their social profiles in two groups:
1. The inclusive and tolerant ones that do it on purpose, and
2. The ones that do it to, hopefully, not be targets of the rage and the hate from those belonging to group 1. -
Hazarth93886y@zvyn in my language theres two definitions of the word gender. One is connected to sex and the other to language. The third gender in language however describes a "thing"/"it" so I don't think that's applicable to humans other than an insult.

So I noticed people are increasingly putting their preferred pronouns on their social media, email signatures, résumés, etc. I also noticed a certain amount of praise gets ladled onto the ones who are other than their cisgender while heaps of scorn come at those whose pronouns match their apparent gender. Especially if they dare defend an idea that non-cis people are against.
Is this the world we live in now? Or is my little corner of the online world just a non-representative fluke, and non-cis people are actually more tolerant than I’m seeing?
