been getting frustrated about how now if you refer to someone as "they" people are just automatically like "oh are they nonbinary?" like the whole point of using the pronoun for me at least is that it is a term void of gender that can apply to anyone. obviously it's important to respect and use people's pronouns where applicable but like if you say for example "god, if they exist," and people in the comments are all like "oh shit god's nonbinary" you've kind of just made nonbinary its own gender or something idk. i'm just a person!!! i'm not the third or "inbetween" gender
