Oh yeah fun fact, I've been called transmisognyistic before.
openly accept new madeup pronouns might be a bit too much to ask (that ze/zir xe/xem crap)

There are only two genders that you can identify with. End of.Slippery slope was never a fallacyThere are valid and invalid uses of the slippery slope fallacy. If you can provide an inductive argument between the established and predicted result with reasonable evidence then it should not be considered a fallacy, although there are legitimate slippery slope fallacies out there. Gay marriage leading to bestiality being a prime example.I agree though. It's basically become a cop out meme if you can't come up with your own counter argument.
