It's just refering those people as a "them" feels like I'm not refering them as human. At least to me. I kinda find it disturbing.

It’s more dehumanizing for you to call them by he or she just because you don’t like to use “them”.

Also, you literally did it in this sentence. “feels like I’m not referring to THEM as human” — you’re perfectly capable of using gender neutral pronouns to refer to a single person, you just don’t want to.

How is it dehumanizing for me to call those people he or she? I'm just saying that we usually use them to describe multiple people or non human individuals, wich is why it feels dehumanizing. Hope you got my message @Teddbeary

There are other pronouns than he and she. If someone wants to be called a they, they should have thought to night be misgendered.

You don’t need to ping me, I’m already being notified on the thread.

Non-human individuals are almost always referred to as “it”, not “they”, so I have no clue why you mentioned that. I don’t get why you’re inventing reasons not to do this when any they/them person will always tell you that using their correct pronouns validates them.

Calling a person by “he” or “she”, when they express a preference for “they”, is dehumanizing because it shows you don’t respect them as a human. You’re putting your own preferences ahead of the other person’s instead of making that small change in your language to make the person feel comfortable.

OMG YESSS BRO THAT WAS SO WELL SAID I respect you sm

Go off lead scary
