This is your year non-trans folks. This is the year

to be the one to call out grandma for misgendering your non-binary cousin,

to point out how fucked up your uncle’s transphobic jokes are, or

to tell your mom that her excuses for deadnaming someone aren’t good enough.

It’s time to make this your problem. How are you going to stand up for trans people this holiday?

@rooster you need to explain to people what these terms mean, “deadnaming”, and why/how they are hurtful. People who make the mistakes are not always aware of the mistake and furthermore confused by this new world.

@patience_not I think it’s time for non-trans people to start explaining this to each other.

I also don’t think it’s a new world where a basic level of respect is calling someone by the name they tell you to use in good faith.
