This post may be offensive to people who don't agree with transgender or gender neutral and that sort of stuff. Y'all been warned.

Ok, so, for those who don't know I'm pansexual, and gender neutral, and my sister refuses to respect that. I was helping her with the dishes and just casually mentioned that I was gonna ask our mom for a tux when one of my more important  dances rolls around, at the end of the year, and she completely flipped out on me. It started out with her asking me why I wanted a tux and I explained that I didn't want to wear a dress to the event and we have to be in formal wear. She just kinda looked at me like I was just some crazy person who had no idea what I was talking about. After a moment of awkward silence she says "but your a girl." I replied with, "no, I'm not" and that went back and forth for a while until she asked me to explain. I explained that I don't see myself as a particular gender, nor anybody else, but I still respect people enough to call them by their preferred pronouns. But she kept trying to turn it around on me by saying I didn't respect her because I'm asking her to refer to me as they/them. She thinks, for whatever reason, that just because she straight and "normal", her words, that she doesn't have to respect my feelings and how I view the world around me. We got into a big argument and I just stopped trying to justify my life choices to her, if she doesn't respect me enough to respect my beliefs or how I feel then I don't have to prove anything to her.
