us to get along and treat each other as humans

This begins with acknowledging that some people don't fit into a neat binary category, if they even identify with the spectrum at all

The point isn't to form cliques, the point is acceptance. If one claims to support trans rights, but then misgenders that person and refuses to acknowledge how they would like to be referred, then one is not supportive of trans rights

Be better

Clearly I acknowledge people aren't always in a binary category

But people form cliques/tribes over this stuff - look at history and see what identity politics creates. What gender you identify as has zero real world difference, outside of how others perceive you.

I'd rather not be apart of that game
