Edit: I also just got banned for apparently being a troll. Me. Not the person they believe to be a dragon though.

        I don’t give a fuck about drag really. What drag does and says is up to drag. Drag has a different and challenging identity. The instance mod was applying the rules around identity here, and it seems cis people in here are pissed because they don’t think drag’s identity is valid.

          … yes. Being a dragon is not something you can be. Dragons do not exist, much less is there the capacity for a human being to be one.

          I can’t believe that this is really a point of contention.

            Having different chromosomes is also not something you can do.

            You might argue, that people with chromosomes different from yours exist. This is irrelevant tho, because neither can you change your chromosomes nor can you rule out someone genetically engineers a fantasy style dragon one day.

            Also: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Komodo_dragon

            (PS: I should maybe note that I have the dragon person blocked for different reasons tho)

            You do understand that pronoun use and (gender) identity aren’t necessarily linked, right?

            The existence of dragons has no weight on the validity of drag’s pronouns.

              Drag has explicitly stated their gender identity, numerous times before. Like I said, this isn’t about ‘drag’ as a cutesy ‘xe/xim’ equivalent.
