    I’m definitely non-binary, but I don’t have the wherewithal to correct people irl, and that goes double for the workplace. I’d rather talk about anything else in the whole world with those people, ugh. (On Lemmy though I lean towards masculine pronouns, mostly as a defense mechanism. I’m used to being seen as leaning feminine in the real world, but coming across that way on the internet scares the shit out of me.)

      So what does it mean when you’re cis, but don’t care? People will screw up, people may attempt to use it incorrectly to be mean, but frankly at the end of the day it really doesn’t bother me.

      It’s not wherewithal, it’s not having to get caught up in a mini-argument every single time you just want to get on with life … at least that’s the case for me.

      I’ve never been asked my pronouns, but have had my gender questioned a lot.
