talk-to-the-hands

For those of you who don’t know, American Sign Language doesn’t have gendered pronouns. You point for everyone. Today, someone insisted that it was really transphobic of me to not fingerspell out “ze/zir/zimself” every time I mentioned them. Keep in mind they don’t sign at all, they just wanted to change and police MY language. Tell me again how this isn’t just a ploy to be the most special?
