We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all, regardless of gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, or other similar characteristic.
We will exclude you from interaction if you insult, demean or harass anyone. That is not welcome behavior. In particular, we don’t tolerate behavior that excludes people in socially marginalized groups.
This 'struggle session' has cut open a sore of cisnormativity which allows plausible deniability of transphobic action and thought. It's senseless and insensitive to push back against what should be a non-issue. Cis and trans alike, set your pronouns so as to normalize an aspect of trans inclusion that goes some way to dispel cishet patriarchal norms assumed default by almost every space, especially online.
There is no excuse (that hasn't been considered and discussed and where applicable, taken on board) to push back against this as we as a community have. We can (and should) do better.

I was very clearly talking about the reaction to the post and how much transphobia was latent in this community that I wasn't aware of? in what way does this say that you're transphobic if you don't set pronouns?

she got downvoted
shes not even a fucking mod
you're literally just trying to stir shit up for absolutely no reason

that a mod made an ask that I perceived to be small, it received a response that staggered me, the quantity of people expressing dislike for the ask was shocking, and that I'm not thrilled about it all.
