    I think you expecting no one to use a non-gendered pronoun with you is a privilege you are not going to be afforded.

    This is very simple:

    Me: You/They
    You: You/They
    Elliot Page: You/They
    Donald Trump: You/They
    Lavene Cox: You/They

    All 8 billion plus homo sapiens on this planet: You/They

    Regardless of their gender.

    You are not special. I get that you want to be special, but you aren’t.

      Thank you for being honest with drag and confirming drag’s hypothesis from drag’s last comment. Drag thinks drag understands your motivations for refusing to use drag’s pronouns now. And drag is very glad to have helped you in your crusade to end all gendered pronouns by informing you of the gendered pronouns you used in the last hour, so you can edit them and maintain your principles. Drag hopes you’re able to maintain this standard you’ve set for yourself from now on.

        Feel free to point out an occasion when I have not used this standard in the past. My comment history is there for all to see. Unless I know someone’s gender, I try to use ‘they.’

        Maybe don’t assume you know someone’s motivations or that they are trying to attack you next time.
