Cis people still don't need to be saying how important it is for other cis people to be free to misgender trans people.

They should do that other thing: shutting the fuck up.

If you can ONLY see this issue in the light of whether or not people can misgender trans people, you're already engaging in bad faith.

We've been over this:

This is not about who should or should not misgender trans people (the answer is "no one" but, again, that is not what any of this is about).

This is about who has moral authority to get all West Wing about a group-they-are-not-part-of's oppression.
