I’m not saying you shouldn’t. I’m wondering why you would. Why choose (was it a choice?) these pronouns if you know they are likely to cause confusion and therefore conflict?
They make drag feel like a dragon rider, and they expand your mind so you’ll be more tolerant of the next neopronoun user you meet. What you’re calling confusion might, drag thinks, be the feeling of learning something. Drag hopes you can come to enjoy it.
Yes, I see the parallels to the reactions people have had to meeting other minority groups in the past. To be honest I don’t know if I’ll ever understand or enjoy it, but I respect your right to self-determination so I hope you are enjoying it. Thanks for explaining.

Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.
The usual instance-wide rules also apply.

(New) This sub’s intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don’t get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama
Do you want drag to avoid confusing other people by exposing them to unfamiliar kinds of pronouns?
