    It cost us nothing to not misgender people

    It costs us the right to tell the truth. Knowing what sex someone is, yet being expected to lie about it is abusive.

    It invalidates our message and our ideas, if we do this we really seem the hateful extremists the TRAs like to paint us.

    Bullshit. TRAs will hate us whatever we say or do, simply because we know what they are and are not afraid to say so.

    Your post is a perfect demonstration of the point that the OP of this thread made.

    We don't have to convince TRAs, we have to convince moderate and reasonable people

    Moderate and reasonable people don't demand others lie about what they can see with their own eyes. Transwomen are male.

    Including moderate and reasonable trans people. We also got our subreddits banned. We are also called transphobic, and worse, by TRAs, just for refusing to deny the existence of biological sex.
