    Is calling a MTF transperson a man considered ‘transphobia’ in your mind?

    Do you honestly believe people should be imprisoned for it?

      Intentionally and knowingly calling a MTF trans person a man is transphobia. Dunno about jail, but I’d be down to have legally enforced punishment for that. To be fair, that should probably cover all cases of (intentionally and knowingly) misgendering people, in a similar fashion to defamation.

        Dang. Thanks for being honest, but I vehemently disagree with you.

        People should be allowed to call others what they want. It’s up to us to be mature enough to handle people calling us things we don’t like.

        You should know that advocating for legal repercussions here drives people away from the cause.
