    Misgendering is a very mild form of disrespect compared to what all is out there, regularly, on X and every other social media site. It is a good thing that these sites do not generally regulate disrespect, although for community controlled forums (such as subreddits) I think it’s good that moderators can choose their own rules.

      Misgendering is a cornerstone of the antisocial system of harrassment that contributes to trans deaths. Calling it a mild form of harassment is deeply misguided.

      By the way, this is one of those places where engaging in transphobia (or any other form of bigotry) will get someone banned.
