I havenβt said Iβm angry, or highly offended. I said Iβm exhausted about having to come out on a daily basis.
Your assumptions are incorrect.

Thanks for your input
Thanks for your input
Itβs also human to learn from your mistakes
Men probably feeling that their masculinity is βunder attackβ π
Ugh. Stupid stereotypes
If you donβt know the gender of a person just say βtheyβ or βtheirβ
Itβs really that simple
Thanks. Partner is enough or the word βtheyβ would work.
Exactly. I felt βsafeβ to say that I have a male partner but again, thatβs not always the case.
Saying youβre divorced, that youβre a Ms not a Mrs, or that you donβt have children, doesnβt carry the same fear that we anticipate based on past experiences.
Neutral terms like βyour partnerβ work perfectly.
And yes, everyone deals with assumptions, but for queer people itβs tied to identity, not just circumstance.
Itβs patronising to call someone βoverβsensitiveβ when theyβre just asking for basic respect.
They should never assume
Ugh β the dentist referred to my partner as βsheβ this morning.
I couldβve just nodded along, but instead said, βMy partnerβs a he.β
One of those reminders that being gay often means quietly coming out again and again in everyday moments.
And itβs exhausting.
Nothing like a woman being harassed on international womenβs day.
Bunch of anti trans idiots

I probably shouldnβt have asked.
Banned for life.

Itβs been so long, Iβm psyching myself up π

Why no swimming?
A handbell is a very good idea π
Thank you
Good to hear heβs doing fine ππ»
A beautiful DM, just before I go to bed. P.s - Iβm a bloke ππ
