Do you insist that your coworkers adhere to gender etiquette rules imposed by the trans community? Bathroom assignments? Etc.?

No, mostly because I’m fairly conflict-averse :)

If my coworkers misgender me and aren’t amenable to correction, or otherwise overtly discriminate against me, I’m much more likely to quit and go elsewhere than to fight it.

"Gender etiquette rules imposed by the trans community" sure is a way to frame basic respect for other human beings' dignity.
