EDIT: … maybe not “man”, wasn’t looking too close . “being”

"Man" or "Being". Heaven forbid you actually acknowledge a woman...

Ah, I've just jumped to the conclusion that since the conversation is about trans people, that we can exclude

[–] ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

So it's just trans people that you call "beings?"

[–] rottingleaf@lemmy.zip 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

No, but it's easier to use something more general instead of an array of words to refer to every letter of LGBTQNE (the last two being non-carbon and electronic)

EDIT: Also it makes me nostalgic over "gentlebeing" from Star Wars EU

So simply queerphobia then. Imagine my surprise

[–] rottingleaf@lemmy.zip 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I see no phobia here. But also I'm conscious of what's called "hetero" being a great many things too.

I just don't want to be bothered with correct addressings and pronouns when it's clear by default that we are all different
