Comment on What's the difference between asking someone title or someone's pronouns ?

  I can think of a few differences between a universally voluntarily chosen pronoun badge, and a pink triangle forced on queer people to mark them as other.

    Either way makes it a really easy target identifier though, just saying.

    By all means, don't live in fear or isolation.

    Unfortunately, the places where this would do the most good are also the places where they would be in the most danger by wearing one.

    It doesn't affect me either way, I am neither queer nor a hater thereof, it's just a fucked up world right now.

    Hopefully not for much longer though.

    Also, can we address how weird it is that queer is the chosen word now?

    They nailed reclaiming that word.

      The idea would be that the badge would be worn by everyone. Which is why I said it isn't really feasible.

        My bad, I read it as everyone who had a different gender than sex, not everybody everybody
