“The fact that cis women never seem to grasp that trans women have a different relationship with being addressed as ‘man/dude/bro’ is endlessly worrying to me.

You can’t use a word that’s explicitly a gendered term - literally the word ‘man’ or ‘brother’ in an ungendered way. It would be like me cooking a meal and saying that I use dairy milk in a vegan way - no matter how I say I’m using it, it’s still gonna make people sensitive to it sick.”
