Sure, I call people by whatever they prefer to be called, it is just common courtesy which I try to extend to anyone that extends the same to me. Outside of tOT I have no desire to make someone's day worse just because I can.

If your momma gave you a baw name, I call you baw. If your momma gave you a girl name I say ma’am or miss.

I would pretend to make an effort to use the preferred pronouns but I’d make sure to make frequent mistakes

Depends on if they’re a dick about it. If not, then likely so if I believe them. But if they, the government, or any other person or thing we’re to force me to, then frick you I won’t do what you tell me.

You think because you're black makes you immune to being a redneck? Good Lord you are a snowflake.

Let's make a deal, Pac. You convince your folk to stop talking on a phone at CVS. And to lower their voice, period. Maybe stop clapping their hands when upset. Sit up when you drive for God's sake. Pull your Goddamn pants up. Get a job, Sparkling Wiggles!

You see, things take time to catch on...

I have grown to accept homosexuals, which is something I've come a long way on. When it comes to being a trans, I just can't pretend to shrug it off as some ho hum thing. I see it as a severely disturbed person. And I feel ridiculous supporting that behavior by calling he/she/it by preferred pronoun.

The English language doesn’t change just because someone doesn’t like the junk they were given.

bullshite and you're falling into the OP trap. You won't say "you guys" to a group of black women. Film it if you do. Point is we have conceded shite for decades and the OP knows it. For him to bitch about another "group's" requirements really stirs my stew.

If it’s “he” or “she” so long as they were trying to put some effort forward to be the opposite sex, then yes. If they look like a dude and just claim it or they want me to use any other pronoun besides those two, then go frick yourself. I’m not going to butcher the English language so you can be tyrannical over me.

If a person told me they wanted to be addressed as whatever” I would do it out of courtesy.

That depends. Do they prefer to be called mentally ill?
