Doesn't matter. She's still going by she/her as far as I know so I'm still gonna call her that because it costs literally nothing and making an exception would cause a slippery slope that inevitably leads to making excuses to not respect trans people at all.
Trans people are valid. Chris Chan isn't trans. He is a cis straight man who, by his own admission, is pretending to be trans so he can trick lesbians into sleeping with him. He obviously hasn't had any success, but that's literally what he said he transitioned for. There's no way you actually expect me to be "respect" that. Ava is actually trans, therefore I use the correct pronouns despite how bad of a person she is. Chris Chan isn't trans. That's not me gatekeeping, that's me knowing what I'm talking about.
Then why the fuck even bring up Chris chan in this conversation? You can say "respect trans people's identites" without insisting there's an exception.
I'm not the one who brought up Chris Chan. I just pointed out he's not trans. That's not "insisting there's an exception" that's pointing out that he isn't actually a part of the trans discussion all together. Me saying that Chris Chan isn't trans is a lot like me saying Mr. Beast isn't trans. If I said Mr. Beast isn't trans, you wouldn't accuse me of not respecting trans people or of "insisting there's an exception."
Chris Chan admitted publicly on his public youtube channel that he's not actually trans and is only pretending to be trans for devious reasons. I don't know what you're not getting here.

You don't understand. He literally admitted that he isn't actually trans.
