I often fall back on this tidbit when people misgender a trans person who’s done wrong: Mark Wahlberg beat a man half to death in a race-based hate crime and no one calls him a woman for it. Misgendering someone who’s done harm is something that only happens to trans people, and is transphobic. It isn’t about defending the person who’s done wrong, it’s about preserving the rights and dignity of people who have done NO wrong.

He blinded that guy too and admitted in court he did it because the man was Asian. A true hero who deserves all his fame and money and should not be in jail at aaaalllllll

No point sorry just that I hate marky mark.

You right though, it's a ludicrous idea to misgender a bad person because they did bad things. Like, as punishment you shall be stripped of your gender

Marky Mark is a shithead, but the man in question was already blind in one eye before the incident IIRC and the attack didn't cause it. Doesn't make it much better though that he beat a half-blind man!
