He compared hand sizes with you while tripping on shrooms? Sweetheart, that's not flirting. He was high, not horny for you.

I once threw my arm around a guy at a bar to tell him how much he looked like Buddy Holly. Unlike OP, he was able to discern that I was just high af and not hitting on him.

Funny how transgender people stating their boundaries ("don't call me this", "don't touch me there", etc) is considered sacrosanct, but when gay people state our "boundaries" (actually just our homosexuality) it becomes an invitation to try and tear them down.

Compelling people to use pronouns that don't reflect one's sex isn't setting a boundary, though. Boundaries by definition can only be defensive. The only way way something like this could be truly defensive, self-protective establishment of boundaries would be like if the trans-identified person decided that they wouldn't be friends with someone who didn't use their preferred pronouns. That's completely their prerogative. Compelled speech isn't.

Also, "don't touch me there" isn't analogous to "don't call me that". "Don't touch me there" doesn't necessitate that the person touches you elsewhere; they can just not touch you at all. But "don't call me that" does necessitate that people call you something else.

Boundaries by definition can only be defensive.

Such a simple statement, but honestly that's so true and I think that's at the heart of many people's misunderstandings over the word "boundary".

The trans community's tried and true "rules for thee but not for me" method as per usual.

Gonna sound like gay grandpa here with a maybe-unpopular opinion that reflects the insensitivity of my generation and years ... but both OP and their roommate sound young and stupid.

Gay roommie is playing with fire, shouldn't be surprised when he gets burned.

Eh, I agree with you up to a point. I think it's kind of sad that this gay guy couldn't be physically affectionate (in a pretty minor way) with a female friend without her interpreting it as hitting on her, even despite him clearly stating and explaining his sexuality.

Also, lol'd at "gay grandpa."

He's mentioned before how he's not attracted to vaginas/people with vaginas and I want to respect that

Then respect it. And anyway, why would you waste your time trying to date someone who literally says they will never be attracted to you?
