Does it make sense to identify as a woman and use “he/him” pronouns?

I love the 'pronouns don't equal gender' thing. It's like the blank tile in Scrabble.

It's a good one to remind transpeople of when they insist their neopronouns validate their gender.

"transtrenders," technically

Either all trans people are trenders, or none of them are.

What doesn't make sense is people declaring their own third person pronouns. Those pronouns aren't for you nor do you own them; they're for the people talking about you, and those people are free to decide the most appropriate pronouns to use.

No it makes sense. My personal pronouns are "your magesty" and "exalted one" and should you fail to refer to me as such your pronouns will soon be "was/were"

I am clearly your superior devine god emperor. And not only is it treason to fail to refer to me as such. But it is also a rediculously transphobic display of bigotry, which is almost worse.

Sure, why not, none of the other gender ideology stuff makes sense either

I mean there's literally no bar for entry, is there?

I don’t know why you guys are making fun of this. Pronouns are serious business.

On Reddit it does.

About as much sense as someone to identify as the opposite gender as what they were born as.
