Kind of but that doesn't give nearly enough information on the wearer's preferences. They should carry advertising boards and a placard listing their likes and dislikes or micro aggressions are inevitable although since micro = 1 millionth there's a bit of leeway before any actual aggression would be detectable. You are possibly underestimating some people’s capacity to be upset or triggered one million times in very short order.

I don't care what peoples preferences. If I greet someone I don't say "Hello lesbian". So even if you don't agree with people's lifestyle choices you wouldn't necessarily know what they are if you are chatting to the checkout girl about last nights soap. If that person chooses to impart the information then that is another discussion entirely. The problem with this pronoun stuff is that these people are imposing on you their preferences whether you like it or not and that I do have a problem with. They aren’t imposing anything. They are requesting. Only the law can impose and we all both help to make the law and must abide by it. Ought be no problem to anyone.

And why not? Also what if I want to self-identify as having a mental illness that means I cannot go to work? Or can a Government decide if I am ill or not? Self-identification is an utter fallacy. Society collapses if you take it to any kind of logical conclusion. Gender is fixed. Trans anything are not what they proclaim themselves to be, no matter how much they want to play pretend in that alternative role. They can have every bit of cosmetic surgery they want, gulp down hormone blockers like water, wear whatever clothing they like and it makes not a single iota of difference to who they are. This is all f***ing lunacy. And for what? What does society gain out of any of this? It makes a mockery of so, so much. Where is any of the upside on this? I wish I could introduce you to my granddaughter you used to be a grandson. They are super intelligent and destined for a great career. They would be able to reason why they have transitioned much better than me. Unless you have been through this I don’t think anyone is in a position to judge.

the teacher just got Jailed. For contempt of Court. And NOT, strictly speaking, for the Pronoun altercation. But for altercations Generally and a refusal to show much respect. Looking online, it seems to be the umpteenth time to kick up a stink. Westboro Baptist Church wannabees, maybe ?
