@TexMexBazooka@lemm.ee responded to a meme about swarmgenders to call me a troll for being nonbinary. Out of curiosity, I tried an experiment, and asked if there are any xenogenders they respect. They responded by saying it’s “over the line” of made up specialist [sic] snowflake shit.
Make no mistake: This is the average view of people who yell about how xenogender people are “trolls”.

I’m sorry but is this a joke or are the people involved being genuine?
It’s genuine. What part of this gender makes you feel that people would treat it as a joke?
For me it’s the swarm part
Well, you read the webpage. You know swarms are natural, inspiring, nonbinary, and real. What’s hard to swallow about that? Seems it has a great deal of similarity with binary human gender roles, in terms of the social structure of what it means to be a gender.
I don’t think anyone is doubting swarms existing in nature. As a human gender though…
Okay but you haven’t actually explained what’s hard to believe. You’ve just vaguely gestured at the whole thing and expressed incredulity. Can you explain what specifically is hard to buy?
It’s hard to believe it as a real human gender. Why? It just sounds ridiculous. Doesn’t go much deeper than that.
Do you just find the idea of all genders other than male and female hard to believe? And if not, what’s a nonbinary gender you do believe in? (Note that identities like genderfluid or bigender aren’t genders themselves, they’re combinations of actual genders. And agender isn’t a gender either)
