Adding Pronouns and Gender Flags to Steam Profiles
Dear Steam Support,

I am writing to request the addition of pronouns and gender flag options to Steam profiles.

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I believe it is important for players to be able to express their gender identity and pronouns on their profiles. This would allow for a more inclusive and welcoming gaming environment for all players.

Many other online platforms, including social media and gaming services, have already implemented similar features, and I believe Steam should follow suit. This would be a positive step towards creating a more inclusive and respectful community.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Calling another "cis" is in fact hate speech. The word "cis" means against straight male. As usual, their logic failed as hate is two way street.

…. not[www.merriam-webster.com] so much.

Sexual orientation is entirely orthogonal to the usage you’re referencing — it relates to gender identity.

Consider the affixes. Sheesh.

Okay, then why trans would offend a straight male by calling them "cis". We all know what that means by now. It an act of defiant against straight people.

How would I know why some unidentified person is using a term? I’d generally presume “because it’s accurate and relevant,” but your toy scenario is excessively thin on details. Explain what the damage is, please? What’s the slur entailed in “your gender identity corresponds to your sex?”

:spazdunno: …. And “defiance against straight people?”

Yes, that's correct

Since when do people deserve authority or obedience merely for being straight?

You left off bold letters. At this point, this discussion is over as I know it is propaganda site and you just uploaded ad hominem.
Propaganda site? They literally show the Tweets where the hashtag got started and chronicled its evolution as a troll job that people who didn't know any better took seriously. It is not and has never been an organized campaign to shame cis people.

No, I'm saying people are making up things to be outraged about because they WANT a bad guy to rally against.

Firstly, no, it isn't, not sure where you pulled that definition from. Secondly, trans people (and the left in general) are not "intolerant of reality and factual things", so you're two for two on made up nonsense.

this can be sufficiently achieved with the ui already in play (and since before the previous ui).

I disagree with the suggestion.

Also, I feel like the lack of readily visible tribalism actually allows for greater inclusivity. Having so many inherent identifiers would create more divisiveness.

its crazy to me that this redundent request has gone on for 7 pages (likely laced with bickering) and even more so to me that it hasnt been locked.

no... Cis is in fact often used as a slur

it is offensive when people say it as if its a lesser category, which ive seen it used that way MANY times.

Except not a boogeyman when reality swings hard against someone's personal beliefs.

Its very difficult to miss the recent events and the threats all over from the people that is about.
Pretending its not true doesn't make it less true.

Maybe a good chunk of a group shouldn't make threats or do mass casualty attempts or plot them, then. Hard to falsify things that actally happened or were caught before happening due to citizens reporting behavior.

: obstinate or intolerant devotion to one's own opinions and prejudices : the state of mind of a bigot
Head in the sand doesn't change that these things are true. Bigotry isn't solely things against left leaning beliefs. Also left groups are extremely intolerant and prone to violence over mere disagreement these days. So many boots on the ground videos and media have shown this especially for the past 4-8 years to be primarily true.

So social media is suddenly only wrong when the group makes themselves look bad or when people report such?

People are telling that group its "us vs them" that disagreement of that is "mass ending" which keeps turning many of them to commit or plot mass ending events, and its usually done to children, the more innocent and defenseless.

Again, these videos are online to see such threats and to see the events that happened and ones that were prevented. If a group has a problem as a whole, it should be admitted and dealt with not ignoring the problem and encouraging dangerous statements which causes extremist events.

Very hard for someone to say none of this is a thing when it keeps happening.

Typically it is actually used as a slur, Twitter bans people for it as well.

I'd be very worried now. They just revealed that they know more about what you have seen and heard than you do. :steammocking:

Just a friendly reminder that negatively characterising other users is against steam ToS as it creates an unwelcoming environment.

Indeed it does, portraying people as bad people for their gender identity or sexual or romantic orientations creates a hostile and unwelcoming environment both for people of those identities/orientations and for the people who support or appreciate them.

Unfortunately it does not seem like Valve is taking these issues as seriously as they should be, as evidenced by the fact that there are people in the thread calling for violence against these groups, who's posts have not been removed and the people have only received bans for unrelated reasons. Hopefully, this will change in the future.
