Well there’s closeted trans people for whom stating their pronouns either means misgendering themselves or doing a forced outing and both of these are horrible choices, so there’s that. That’s a concern i struggle with in that regard and that i still need a good solution for. That’s a legitimate case of people having reservations about mandatorily stating your pronouns. That’s also the only case i can think of that i think is a valid concern.

When we’re instead talking transmeds who object to pronoun circles bc they want to lord over other trans people how cislike they are and how much better they pass, i honestly dgaf. I know that type and they’re just toxic shits you can’t build a community with bc they’ll almost immediately go out of their way to actively harm community members that rub them the wrong way - be it because they do not fit their narrow view of cis-sanctioned transness, or that they perceive as threatening and as rivals because they believe them to be prettier than themselves or because they’re too openly queer or w/e. I have friends who carry trauma from interacting with that kind of person that means they need my emotional support every time we go to a community meetup together and that has left them with lasting aggravation of their dysphoria. Transmedicalism is a threat to trans communities, i’ve seen way too often how much damage it causes. Not only that, they will always place demands by dominant society above queer liberation when there’s even the tiniest conflict between the two. When i can’t work with these people without hurting my friends, when they are useless in achieving political goals because they constantly and reliably fold to transphobes, i view it as a feature when they find more NB-inclusive social routines alienating.
