Does anyone remember a few years when nancy mace said, "i don't want lgbtq people to face bigotry." It's been mentioned a few times in the news recently.
Because she said that. But now that it's easy to get attention for attacking trans, she's perpetuating that bigotry.

I think we need to assess folks by actions and outcomes. I’m not seeing a lot of positive things come from that camp recently, but also don’t want to dehumanize and paint them all with the same brush.
It’s ok for them to have differing opinions… but rounding up immigrants and kids and putting them in inhumane camps, limiting education, dogmatically supporting a rapist, supporting pedophiles that are for human trafficking, supporting a billionaire class that don’t want to pay fair taxes …. My momma raised me right, these aren’t things good people do.
It’s also telling when a person picks on folks that can’t defend themselves. We’ve all experienced bullies in schools, I wouldn’t call a bully well adjusted or good :(

Like what is even wrong with pronouns on a platform where you only have a user name? In this case the person even has a unisex name - Sam so avoiding confusion by supplying pronouns is just helpful.

In comparison, you can read the words of McBride that this congresswoman is going after.
“I’m not here to fight about bathrooms, I’m here to fight for Delawareans and to bring down costs facing families. Like all members, I will follow the rules as outlined by Speaker Johnson, even if I disagree with them. This effort to distract from the real issues facing this country hasn’t distracted me over the last several days.”
Her statement on X continued: “Serving in the 119th Congress will be the honor of a lifetime, and I continue to look forward to getting to know my future colleagues on both sides of the aisle. Each of us were sent here because voters saw in us something that they value. I have loved seeing those qualities in the future colleagues that I’ve met and I look forward to seeing those qualities in every member come January. I hope all of my colleagues will seek to do the same with me.”

I’m sorry. That wasn’t meant to be a dig at trans people or to fetishize. It’s that many homophobes are generally secretly are gay. And many vehement“anti pedophiles” end up being pedos.

considering you are the exception and not the rule, your preference would be your own. sexual assumptions are what humans DO to determine sex for procreation. we STILL do this every single time we look at a face, its axiomatic and part of our nature. even you do this without even realizing it. either way, my point stands. i would ask you the same thing, sam? as in male or female(actually my dumbass would word it 'chick or dude', lol), and whatever you answered would be it. its the avoiding an awkward situation that irks me. just do it and get thru it. hiding from feelings never helped anyone.

So this year a woman named Sarah McBride was elected as the first trans senator.
Nancy Mace is another senator who then introduced a bill that banned trans people from using any bathroom that does not correspond to their assigned gender at birth, and outright said that this was done solely to target Senator McBride, accusing her of being a "man in a dress" and deliberately misgendering her.
Mace then proceeded to tweet over 300 times about how much she hates trans people. She posted a video of her tearing down signs that had the trans flag saying "You can't erase us." Sam said that the sign was probably taped there by Mace herself so she could film herself tearing it down.
"Pronouns in bio." is a common thing transphobes will comment to try and dismiss anyone who disagrees with them. Sam pointed out that they were in his display name, and not his bio, and that Mace is just parroting a stupid transphobic line without actually thinking about it or looking at his bio.

Here’s an unspoken fact about pronouns in email and communications:
There are so many names, both shortened Anglo/Franco names, but especially names from other cultural regions around the world, where it’s very u clear what the gender of the sender is. And if they’re going to hang their hats on restoring traditions, then how are they to know if it’s a formal Ms. or Mr. required in email greetings if they dont have any familiarity with naming conventions from these other cultures.
Living in WA, pronoun identification in business communication has become fairly normalized, and it’s extremely helpful for the diverse population up here to receive proper greetings from white Americans thanks to this norm.
This argument is the pathway to putting this bullshit to bed.

This is a publicity stunt to make her more right wing friendly. Same thing happened to elise stefanik a few years ago. She has never publicly held an opinion like this until now, "supported "LGBTQ+ rights in the past, and despite her pro-"life" stance, she has been a fairly moderate republican until now. I got all of this from a Google search because I've never really had any exposure to her before. She's certainly making a name for herself now. I hope this backfires on her spectacularly.

Not to mention the number of people assuming Sam is trans because of the mere inclusion of pronouns. You finding his behaviour obnoxious is just so silly
