Provocatoria: Dear cis people who say "I go by [my assigned pronouns] but anything's okay!" ›

pinebark:

Please stop. You’re not helping.

I know it must seem like a very progressive thing to do and that it’s coming from a desire to be seen as an ally, but I need you to know that it’s totally fine to tell me that your preferred pronouns are your assigned ones. It won’t make me think…
