It seems like nowadays schools don't teach anyone about pronouns. They just say, "she's a girl, he's a boy." And leave it at that. That's what schools do.
Now I can't seem to fit in. I can ask 1,000,000 people what their pronouns are and 99.9% will say "What are pronouns?".
That's why people like me, people that don't like she/her pronouns (if anyone actually knew what pronouns are) or he/him pronouns. Why can't people realize what xe/xem pronouns are or how they/them pronouns can be used for one person.
How many suicides does it take for people to realize that pronouns matter. When will people realize that pronouns aren't equal to their gender?
It's like people don't see that. They don't see that there's so much more to she/her pronouns or he/him pronouns. That's what bothers me. People don't see that, they don't. Not until they ask.
That's why I can't fit in. I feel like a they/them, looks like a she/her, wants to be a he/him but is a xe/xem, WHY CAN'T I FIT IN!
I want to be called a man, not a woman. I want to be called xe/xem or it/it's, but no one not even my own family, can do that. It's been 6 months. And I've reminded you every single damn time, "Xe!", and yet you still can't figure it out. And yet you wonder why I hurt myself, why I cut myself. Why I've grown these addictions.
It's not fair.

Real quick I wanted to say that this is based off of experience with my close ones and me.
