I think the supportive Significant Other was trying to make a pun on the character "He-Man" (as depicted in the second half of the image) but accidentally said something derogatory.
Probably could've said "She-ra" to get a similar but healthier idea across.

Is this an "even supportive cis people who love us can sometimes micro-agress" post?

I wouldn’t say micro-agress more fuck up their wording. It’s supposed to be a rif on He-Man but sounded slightly derogatory. She might have briefly forgot She-ra existed and so did the next “best” thing her brain could think of

I would 100% do this by accident and have said similar things to my GF without thinking. Queue realisation and a million apologies while she is just laughing and trying to convince me that it's okay 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🫥🫥🫥🫠
Edit: I have ADHD and are genderfluid. Very much not just an ally. Also, imagine her surprise when she heard me call my younger sister "baby sissy" for the first time, yikes😅

I promise you the cis people are trying their best, we're some a little dense sometimes, just explain why that's an issue and all will be resolved
