The pronoun I wish to be addressed by is, "Your Excellency"
Thank you

[gjp]

I mean this viewpoint is just common sense but apparently this is now radical.

[GodotOfficial]

I now identify as debt-free, all banks must now respect my right to identify as such

[ineedhoez]

I am left winger socialist. I agree with him. It is compelled speech. I am going to call you whatever you look like. You can ask. I will try to oblige. End of story. No legislation necessary.

[blazedandconfused]

Misleading title. He just refuses to let the government compel people how to speak.

[pawsandclaws]

I am a trans woman full surgery, nothing and then nothing anyone says to me will ever offend me, call me male, a man, a goat, a pig, call me whatever you like, it does not affect my daily living, being offended is one of the most tiresome human emotions goings.

[liamsok]

Misleading title. Jordan has said before that he would respect someones pronouns if they asked him to.

[JueputaGuebon]

Narcissistic power play"
Good god is this man spot on.

[bbysaywah]

‘You’re trying to gain linguistic supremacy, you’re doing that by using compassion as a guise’ 👏🏽

[j.andrew]

Respect can't be gained through legislation

[jeremymullins]

People keep telling me that Jordan is misrepresenting the bill for the purpose of fear-mongering. Honestly, I don't see it. Seems like he's presenting it as exactly what it is.

[k.w.]

I can barely remember people’s names upon meeting them once. Now this? 😳

[LorenzoNW]

"Narcissistic power play" ... Jordan nailed it.

[maipardhan]

This man has made me question the leftists, I am a centrist right now.

[Flip]

Its gonna be a confusing future on this planet

[shaikhahmed]

The pronoune I'd like to be called is "your-majesty" and the respectful way of addressing is looking at my feet while saying it 🙄

[Zosalot]

It really is a narcissistic power game. He made a lot of sense. Every conversation I have with these overly hostile bullies reminds me of living with my abusive, narcissistic mother and I didn't fully realize why until he said that.
Love how they pretend to care about triggers until they realize they will be personally effected as well and must change their own behavior. Suddenly their own rules do not apply to them. Because they are narcissistic.

[barrymanihigh]

Misgendering someone is no worse than pronouncing a name wrong or getting an age wrong. So many imaginary problems at the moment...

[camilaxoxo]

im a trans girl and honestly i think these pro nouns “zim” and “zer” is just bs

[FruityHachi]

"it's a narcissistic power play"
