Saw this tweet this morning. I noticed the wife was saying she was non-binary and this account gets followed by a lot of feminists. I knew the snake would eat it's own tail. The response by Skye is I think the third or fourth comment and you can see she calls the NB a "she". Skye is a lesbian and claims to be a LGBQT ally, yet she gets attacked on all fronts for the pronoun usage. You can click it to see if you so desire, but you know what's there.
"Using the wrong pronouns makes you a literal Nazi" and yada yada yada.
These are not conversations had by people that are mentally stable.

Can you assume they/them when no pronouns are ever declared?

One can assume whatever they want. For now.

I guess NB people automatically default to they/them or something? I don't know. I don't keep up with the rules of crazy.
Translation: It means you're an attention whore. It means that you've learned that you're not the center of the universe, so to cope you pretend to have some weird sexuality. Just being gay wasn't enough, and because it was becoming too accepted, you had to come up with something else. Something that means you have to explain it to people. Now you feel important.
Fewer than 100 young people in England are currently prescribed puberty blockers by the NHS. They will all able to continue their treatment.

All of the countries that folks here pointed to as who we should copy for trans health have all stopped and/or condemned puberty blockers. Let's see how long that trend takes to catch on here where we are performing gender reassignment surgery on children and there are billions in profits on the line.
Here's a thought, maybe stop giving them irreversible drugs and surgeries?

But in Finland, Sweden, France, Norway, and the U.K., scientists and public-health officials are warning that, for some young people, these interventions may do more harm than good.
I don't remember which one, but Finland, Sweden, or Norway was considered "the" example for how to deal with trans children, until they stopped and then they weren't. I'm certain it's here in the forums somewhere.

Yes sir. I think the general consensus around here on trans is:
-Leave the kids alone
-If you're an adult, you do you
-I'll be polite, but don't fool yourself into thinking I believe you've changed genders
-You need mental help and our country plus the medical community has failed you.

We did, but we didn't explore the spectrum aspect.
I love that they didn't bother banning transgender athletes from men's sports. Kind of proves their point...

According to the transgender participation policy, all athletes may participate in NAIA-sponsored male sports, but only athletes whose biological sex is female and have not begun hormone therapy will be allowed to participate in women's sports.
