yes, yes it is. but 70-30 is very dude heavy but not quite enough to assume everyone you're talking to is a dude. the assumption has the consequence that women, femmes, and enbies, don't feel comfortable speaking up unless they're comfortable with people assuming they're men. even a lot of cis women aren't comfortable with that. remember when reddit used to whine that women would disclose their gender in posts "for attention"?

yea, I had the same realization after the pronoun tags were first turned on. I'd always thought this was a more dude heavy space, just given how people behave and interact.
it's actually done a lot to affect how people relate to each other here. there's a lot less masculinity being flung around here than on the old sub. it's still not great but it's better than it used to be.
it's good for all of us, not purely for us transes.
too horny. cass is the short form of my name.
if the fash don't like it and my comrades do, it's the perfect name :cat-trans:
they're complaining this isn't the old sub
stupidpol chud came all the way here to tell me he didn't like my name. I'm so touched.
the only tears I see are nazi tears :stalin-joking:
there's someone JAQing off about Chinese authoritarianism and an ex-poster from here going off about (I think?) the USSR. :soviet-hmm:
I meant the user who posted the "I've been unbanned" bit. idk who mrzbry is.
they're in that thread going ooooffffff about how they're oppressed by the admins, lmao

now imagine that the whole society is like at least this stupid and genuinely believe stuff even worse than this about you and it has real fucking consequences for your life... and yeah... being trans is a lot of really dumb, pointless shit that only exists to make your life harder.

/sigh I'm grumpy
