Comment on Demanding a pronoun is like demanding a burkas.

Which clearly is something someone in the first world without too many problems in life would say.

Well, either way, it’s not really worth thinking about for more than 10 seconds, because quite frankly the parallel is pretty fucking dumb.

Oh, maybe I misunderstood. If that’s the case, I guess that’s at least a more accurate comparison than what I thought they meant.
I thought they meant that someone asking them to use a preferred pronoun was like forcing them to wear a burka.
