My friend on Instagram is a trans drag queen, but she's not 18 and has to still deal with her parents (mom and step dad). They're extremely verbally abusive, and at one point kicked her out of the house, and only let her back in when she went "back in the closet". Today, she posted about how her mom took all of her boy clothes and her binders, and only left her a dress, so she had to go to school dressed as a girl. She seems extremely suicidal, and I don't want anything to happen to her. She's a kind person, and a beautiful girl, but hearing about this stuff breaks my heart. I don't know what to do...

what's so wrong with that? most people identify as male or female, so if you're in a thread for guessing someone's gender it's stupid to get offended if people only say those imo.
but its not like theres not other genders....... idk its just kind of bothering me, thats all
I hope you are joking
it seems like you're just looking for things to be offended at. it's a freaking 'guess the gender' thread of course they're going to be saying male or female...
What's wrong with trying to crush the concept of there only being 2 genders???
???

How is it any different guessing "I think they're bigender!" than "I think they're male!" you know.
I don't think that's a silly thing to get offended over.
Because there's no need to 'crush' the concept of there being 2 genders just as there is no need to crush the concept of there being more than 2 genders.
Wait, why not? What's wrong with promoting a gender spectrum instead of a binary? :/ The current idea of gender is really harmful to a lot of people. Promoting a spectrum idea helps others.

Well, I don't think there's a need to call them "idiots" but idk. i just kinda figured with an LGBTQA+ Support thread people would be more.... .... supportive.
It's how toxic the community becomes over such things, but alas, it's biggest problem is itself
regardless of what you say somebody on the internet will always be offended because everybody loves letting everything offend them
I have no problem with people promoting a gender spectrum, but getting offended over a 'guess the gender' thread is a bit much. I'm sure the people on that thread are aware that there are people who don't identify as male or female but the thread is just a laugh, there's no need to berate people about it.
He didn't "berate" people he just said he was unhappy because it's only male/female guesses, which is a valid complaint. He didn't say "TEAR DOWN THE ENTIRE THREAD BECAUSE IT DOESN'T CATER TO ME"
idk i don't think there's anything wrong with wanting there to be non-binary guesses, and saying things like 'of course it's male/female guesses only' is harmful. I just kind of took it as an invitation to start some non-binary guesses of our own on there since this was posted under a support thread.
Unless you actually think someone is non-binary it's pretty stupid to make a non-binary guess just for the sake of supporting your concept

But it's for fun, right? So.... what's wrong with that? I don't understand what the problem is if it's a thread just for laughs.
Edit: like let's say someone guesses i'm male even though i'm not. I'm not going to get offended by it, because it's just for fun. If someone guesses i'm non-binary even though i'm not, i'm not going to get offended, because it's just for fun.
