    How do you refer to a child for the first five years of their life if giving them a name, even a temporary one, is transphobic?

      I notice first off you’re conveniently ignoring how I have been referring to sex designations for the past several posts and instead exclusively focusing on my earlier statement about names.

      Makes me doubt your faith, that.

      I will broaden and ask why you think any imposition of a gender on a person who has not yet informed you what it is is laudable or appropriate, be that marker on a certificate or a gendered name?

            You: “The fact that society does this is a problem!”

            Me: “Okay. What do you think we should do instead?”

            You: “I refuse to answer this question”

            Are you trolling?

              “Okay. What do you think we should do instead?”

              Stop doing that. Christ on a cracker.

              If I told you “kicking puppies is wrong” would you demand ‘an alternative’ to do instead?
              Don’t kick puppies.
