Re: Any fello transgender people on here?
Yeah, I noticed many people tend to write the way they would speak in person. In these cases, you can afford even sarcastic jokes or whatever as it's much more apparent, from the tone of your voice, your facial _expression_ if one can see that and everything else, how your words should be interpreted. It's best to refrain from any emotional or potentially twistable words as much as possible in written discourse in order to minimize the risk of misinterpretation.
I'm not saying this to back any of the offenders in this topic. In fact, I personally agree with all the moderator actions that have been carried out here thus far, and am glad they happened. However, I'm just pointing out something that's usually quite easy to overlook or forget about, something I went through myself years ago, and something those who do it the most usually don't even have a clue about. It's difficult for many people to learn and improve two different techniques of their own personal discourse in an age where coherent reading is becoming less and less mainstream. The most many people read these days are posts on social networks, and learning how to interpret written text from these things is not the way to go. I find it surprising that some of the younger generation are still even willing to read a couple words at a time every now and then at all. Then, it's only logical that if you don't know how to read properly, you won't know how to write properly, and vice versa. Of course, a decent person should try their best to learn from their mistakes. For that, though, they would have to acknowledge the mistakes pointed out to them in the first place.
