A Story of Coincidence and Chance

That can backfire too, though. I was once in a primarily trans group where we introduced ourselves by stating our preferred pronouns, but that got dropped after one very masculine guy said, in a rather snooty way, "I prefer male pronouns, obviously" or words to that effect. I don't know if he intended it to, but it very effectively shamed people whose pronouns aren't obvious, in what feels like a combination of male privilege and passing privilege. So the way it's said can be very important, I guess I'm trying to say.
