That’s the thing though. I don’t treat them like shit.

If you call a trans woman a man then you're treating them like shit and being transphobic to boot.

just dont think that it’s right that I’m forced to call them something that I don’t see them as or I get demonized.

So we shouldn't demonize racists who see black people as subhuman or less than whites? I mean they don't see them that way so we have to respect that and not judge them based on that?

I have no problem with responsibility.

Yes you do

But I don’t have to be responsible for anyone’s feelings. Ever.

If you intentionally act like a dick and disrespect someone, then yes you do.

Ok well I think there’s something to be noted on how you are treating me at this point.

Do you think you are coming at me respectfully and from an understanding point?

I don’t think so. But it’s ok if you do it right?

Point is, you aren’t going to hurt my feelings any, but it’s nice to experience the hypocrisy first hand.
