I don't know why people give them the attention they want.

That's why the first post was perfect. I think the truly appropriate response after just enough recognition of how idiotic a statement it is we just go back to forgetting he exsists like we already have for the last decade or so.

What next, Magoo's opinons on gay marriage? Seriously has been looking for attention.

I just got this. I thought people were making fun of him because his name's Timothy. Beautiful post, Platy.

I would cut the poster some slack. There's still some confusion for many on the matter and bringing up the wrong gender isn't always meant in a hurtful way, just accidentally.

Yeah. I think there's way too much pouncing on people on this point.

Educate people. No need to be presumptuous. Not many are versed on the sensitivity of this topic.

Really? Everyone who doesn't bend over backwards to be overly PC now is something-phobic and a POS. Wow.

Everyone jumps to the extreme here now. I got called a "racist bigot" because I joked that all of my Japanese students would rather watch anime than vote a few months back during the last election.

You heard it here, treating people as the gender they identify as is "bending over backwards" and being "overly PC". Clearly having respect for someone else is a really hard thing to do for some . Swear it seems some of you act like you've just been asked to sacrifice your entire family or some shit.

Yes, it's a gymnastics-level effort of restraint, a herculean straining to assume the accepted moral contortion necessary to call a woman by her name and refer to her as she.

I didn't pounce on the poster, just clarified to him that I feel it's okay to call Timbaland a piece of shit.

Kind of the point actually. If Timbaland does not respect Caitlin's wishes to not be called him or Bruce I feel no need to respect his or anyone defending him wishes to not be called an asshole.

Fair play and if one does not get that they need to examine their motives not mine.
 
I really have a hard time understanding why you'd even express this

like I get that getting into the conversation means publicity but shouldnt you at least be a bit subtle about it

he's not gonna "call him" anything, at all, ever. It's another person's life
