why would trans people need to set pronouns anyway? This is an online community, none of our faces are out there. Aren't we all at risk of being misgendered. Like you "Quillquote". That's not a boy name or a girl name. Misgendering you isn't a transphobic action because you're not trans (unless you are, I'm just guessing).
I don't want to be difficult but I think that it legitimately doesn't make sense.
well a lot of them do want that, so I don't think it matters particularly why. At the same time, other people want the opposite, and it also doesn't particularly matter why, and that's fine. I want everyone comfy and safe.
The point is some people want pronouns, and if you have no issues with setting yours doing so would be appreciated by those comrades because it will keep them safer and less targetable.
sorry if it doesn't make sense, It's been a long day haha
yeah I'll keep my flair because I don't want antagonism but I think I'm over it. Nobody's gender is evident here, not just our trans users. Any of us could be misgendered, not just our trans users. Possibly this makes no sense. But I'm also not very smart.

You do not have to have a flair if you legitimately do not want to, that's important.
You get to decide this for yourself same as anyone
