"I would never call someone something they donβt want to be called on purpose." then what in the fuck is even your point here? Why be an asshole to people whose feelings you'd supposedly respect? And fr what the hell is up with your tangent about us singing about rimjobs in Dennys? You sound like a conservative transphobe, if you're not I'd suggest you stop doing your best impression of one
They probably mean this exact reaction where instead of being reasonable and explaining you don't like being called that you launch into an immediate tirade.
This isn't at all the situation you're describing. It would be unreasonable to freak out on someone for calling everyone dude. I'm freaking out bc this post is full of people who would choose to call people dude even after being asked not to
A lot of the posts specifically say the opposite. "If they asked me to, I would stop", but there's also a lot of folks who seem to be blanket upset that anyone would use the word at all without asking first, which is not reasonable.
