    Also have you ever considered the fact that maybe you (or other people) don’t really care about gender labels because you were assigned as the gender you prefer? It seems a bit silly to criticise a group who currently faces a lot of discrimination based on their gender preference. Also are you aware that your argument is often used to discredit the experiences of and as a reason to discriminate against people who identify as non-binary?

      It seems a bit silly to criticise a group … based on their gender preference

      Like, didn’t I just say that it’s the vibe of the word that I don’t like? Therefore either

      1. I am not criticizing any specific people at all because I’m just talking about how we use words; OR
      2. I am criticizing some people for their taste of words

      and not what you say at all IMO
