Yes, I understand. People want to have everyone set a pronoun. I think cis people should to normalize pronoun use. I also think we should not force anyone to box themselves into the use of a pronoun. The split right now is between people who think it's fine to leave it blank vs people who think someone who does not want to publically specify a pronoun should use "none". I think saying none is also a choice we should not force. I think a conversation is healthy and normal. You seem to think even the discussion is so polarizing it must be a purposeful wreck attempt. You also framed this as a matter of personal discomfort when that is super trivializing.
I was summarizing the stuggle sesh. My entire problem is with the framing of the original comment which makes the entire conversation seem driven by like purposefully negative actors. Acting as if TALKING about pronouns is going to collapse the user base of chapo or something.

Right. Which is not the same thing as misgendering users, which is what you've been posting about

Well I'm not the op that you originally commented to so lol
I meant the original comment sorry. You responded to my response to the OP so I mixed you two up. Point stands- I'll edit it to read better
