I would love to know what information they believe they are communicating about themselves. Not just "I support trans people" - you can communicate that more directly by putting "I support trans people" in your bio - but what it means to them to be she/hers or he/hims. I am of the apparently outdated and bigoted view that every single female person is a she/her and that every single male person is a he/him, and that those pronouns indicate nothing about a person's personality or interests or sense of self. But gender ideology says otherwise - according to gender ideology, it's something other than sex that makes a person a she/her or a he/him. What is that thing? When you tell me you're a she/her or a he/him, what information are you giving me other than "these are the words I want you to use to refer to me"?
