3rd person reference is annoying. No alternate software. Try a remote access solution and using the browser from a different machine.
What do the pronouns have to do with anything?
Personal pronouns of any sort are fine. 3rd person pronouns are grammatically awkward and confusing to the reader when substituted for 1st person/personal pronouns. We aren’t talking about a 3rd party, we’re talking about you.
Drag's pronouns are person-independent, which means when drag uses them, they're first person pronouns.
Kind of self centered to create pronouns just for oneself. Also the fact that it's forcing your kink onto others as an identity feels like trolling.
Most genders are intertwined with sexuality. In the eyes of many people, manhood is about having a penis, womanhood is about having a vagina, and gender is about knowing who you're supposed to have sex with.
Drag, being straight, is attracted to the opposite gender; dragons. Everyone who tells you their sexuality is giving the same information drag just gave you, but with the details changed.
If you're uncomfortable with the idea of people having sexual attractions, drag apologises. Drag didn't mean to trigger any sex repulsed asexuals.
Fucking dumb. That’s not how language works. Grow up.
What...
How does drag do remote access from an Apple device?
Dragon Rider wasn’t speaking in third person, that’s just drag’s pronouns. I have no idea why you thought questioning a user about drag’s pronoun choice is at all relevant to this post about technology
I wish there was a single generic pronoun, gender neutral. I don't agree with chosen pronouns. Language is standardized for a reason.
Why is misgendering others so important to your wellbeing?
It is not. It's precisely because I don't wish to disrespect others that I wish there was an acceptable way to address others in a way where I couldn't inadvertently call someone something they don't want if I'm not aware of their preference. That's why I advocate for respectful, neutral pronouns. I'm fine if we do away with him/her, whatever. Replace it with whatever. Thou? Ot, Om, OS? I don't know. I wish for a way for people to be them, not labels. I believe that the way to equality is making gender a non issue.
And now you’re lying. In the comment I responded to, you said you don’t agree with chosen pronouns. That’s you selfishly deciding that you don’t respect the gender presentation of transgender and non-binary people because… why? It’s more convenient for you? You’re too lazy to ask others simple questions?
Not antagonizing complete strangers for no reason and stopping behaviors of yours that other people tell you to stop doing because it makes them uncomfortable are things your parents should have taught you to do when you were little.
