Quotes About Misgendered

late 2018 Twitter's 'hateful conduct policy' changed so that Twitter could permanently ban people from the platform if they were found to have 'deadnamed' or 'misgendered' trans people.9 So the moment that a person says that they are trans and announces a change of name anybody who calls them by their previous name or refers to them by their previous gender has their account suspended.
~ Douglas Murray
Too often, when transgender people die, family members or funeral homes will end up dressing a body of a transgender person in the garments of the gender that they were assigned at birth instead of their gender identity. They're often dead-named and misgendered.
~ Sarah McBride
Believe it or not, Santa's reindeer exemplify the problem. Unlike other deer species, both male and female reindeer grow antlers. So at a glance they all look the same. But zoologically all male reindeer lose their antlers in the late fall, well before Christmas.9 In spite of their names, only some of which are feminine,10 all Santa's reindeer sport antlers. So they're all female. Which means Rudolph has been misgendered.
~ Neil deGrasse Tyson
