> [@geldar](#): > > Gender-neutral pronouns are far more often a dysphoria trigger than other gender-neutral terms, for both binary and nonbinary people. uh, please speak for yourself. we are all individuals, so i don’t doubt they could trigger someone for whatever reason. but to say they “far more often” trigger dysphoria in nonbinary people (or binary people, which i don’t understand at all) is something that sounds about as common as binary people being triggered by their own binary pronouns. not impossible but to blanketly speak for so many of us is in this way is absurd. if you have some resources or social media discussing how nonbinary pronouns have triggered nonbinary people, I’d be happy to read them. Please link cause I’ve never heard that perspective before. can someone like… explain what this topic even is? i understand it was carried over from a different topic, but i can’t even tell what is actually being talked about right now. \*what I’ve read so far seems like it could just be merged into the [Matter of Respect](https://forum.choiceofgames.com/t/a-matter-of-respect-gender-neutral-pronoun-guide-and-discussion/69951) or [Differences in Portrayal of Trans characters](https://forum.choiceofgames.com/t/differences-in-portrayal-of-nb-trans-cis-characters/72411) threads --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.choiceofgames.com/t/non-binary-characters-and-pronouns/114439)._
