IF ME CALLING YOU DUDE OR GURL CAUSES YOU TO HAVE DYSPHORIA YOU SHOULD tell me because you being comfortable is so much more important than some stupid slang
or when if i call you “man” because i know i do that a lot. please tell me if it causes dysphoria or just makes you upset in general. because i will stop because i love you.
I use those as gender neutral and don’t mean it in a gender way at all but if you don’t like it tell me and I will try to stop (no promises because I usually forget things so I might need reminded a few times)this also applies to “guurrrrrl”
also mate, buddy, bro, literally anything I use, I generally use them gender neutral but if they make you uncomfortable PLEASE TELL ME
I tend to use darling, sweetheart, and hon as gender neutral and platonic phrases so if that makes you uncomfortable give me a heads up
