Bruh that's not helpful, I mean I think they were transgender but I said "she" because of their name ughhhh kms
I respect what they want to be referred to as also so...
just apologize next time you see them and ask what their pronouns are. mistakes happen!
It happens. You didn't know, its a mistake, just apologize to him(?) and use the correct pronouns next time (ask him(?) what pronouns he prefers too...)
Yeah, I'm going to. I'm guessing nothing to do about the humiliation I'll feel while walking into class (￣∇￣")...
I don't know if I should really be this embarrassed about it though, is it that bad? I wonder if everyone noticed or if anyone will judge me. I wonder if anyone will even remember? Probably it was only 2 days, unless they weren't listening and missed the "she" part. It would be great if there were a scale for this 1-10
Ahh anxiety <3 Wish I didn't have it, I can't calm down and I am even considering switching out of that class now because it's so bad (Well the class is full anyway, and it's an elective)
Thanks I will
If this person is using an obviously feminine name, then they identify as female ... just politely ask if you offended
Honestly, i bet the other person is much more embarrassed than u so u should just talk to them so that u both feel at ease.
? Not true? They did have a feminine name but they were transgender and if I had to guess I would think they would prefer to go by "he". I can't assume that with 100% certainty though
Yes (￣∇￣")
i couldn't care less if someone calls me a she or he or they. i would correct them that im a girl but it's a mistake so i wouldn't feel negative towards them. anyone is who feels offended or identifies with a gender that isn't female or male can suck it tbh. sigh anyway i wouldn't lose sleep over something so insignificant. it's a mistake you could make regardless of whether or not they were transgender.
Yeah, the person I was talking about seemed pretty cool about it, I mean they didn't correct me but we talked a little after and they didn't seem mad or anything. Although I'm still going to apologize, of course. Honestly I was just worried about what other people in the classroom thought about it from their perspective.
Sorry this isn't really related to the website or anything but I could seriously die right now. So I was at school and we had to introduce another person in front of the class and I wasn't sure if I should call them 'she' or 'he' but I didn't have time to ask because it was our turn. I was going to use 'they' since I didn't have a chance to ask but I slipped and said "she" but I think I was supposed to use 'he'. I'm having some serious anxiety here I can't even relax over the weekend, I don't know if I offended them but no one in the class laughed or anything but later in the class their friend was texting them I believe, from across the classroom. I feel so humiliated. What should I doooo? Overthinking this? I'm dying, I can't get over it.
