They were simply asking a question? Why do you assume the nurse is a lady? Tbh I probably would’ve also assumed they were female, but by asking the question, you’re forced to think about the assumptions you make. Which may not be accurate.
You’re literally getting offended over someone asking a question lmao. And of course you’re the one saying everyone else is getting offended. Do you literally just not understand what irony is? Or are you literally incapable of looking inward for 2 seconds, and realizing that perhaps you make assumptions about people and situations that may be incorrect?
I don’t assume they’re a lady at all, in fact I don’t give a shit about their gender? Same as the person who was originally corrected.
Unlike you lot, who are incredibly arrogant in thinking that caring about a random individual who will supposedly like being “defended” or even needed that in the first place. That arrogance is so self-serving it’s nauseating.
I was speaking in generalizations, not about your specific assumptions.
We all make assumptions about others that are sometimes incorrect. Myself included.
In fact, you’re currently crafting up straw men to attack right this very second. And those straw men are based on incorrect assumptions about what I (or “we”, whoever this mysterious “we” is that you reference) think.
For example, you reference that I am “caring about a random individual who will supposedly like being “defended” “. You are putting quite a few words into my mouth. All I’ve ever done was point out your getting offended by someone asking a question.
I don’t see the harm in pointing out those assumptions. Those who challenge our assumptions make us better people. It helps us grow and learn to disassociate from social media brain rot that gets us pissed off at each other for no reason.
You see someone talking about “gender” and, I assume (although I could certainly be incorrect in my assumption!) that you immediately craft an individual in your mind who has all these other views that you despise. I admittedly do this too. I think we all do to a certain extent.
If someone tells me their stance on abortion for example, I subconsciously craft this individual in my mind and create assumptions about what that other person thinks based on zero rational evidence. I’m trying to get better at realizing when I do this, but in order to get better, my assumptions sometimes need to be pointed out for me.
Wouldn’t you want others to point this out to you?
