I don’t see why people’s feelings are hurt when their significant others cheat on them. It’s their partners' right to do so, after all. Maybe they need to learn some acceptance.

Breaking a voluntarily agreed upon exclusive arrangement is not the same as not submitting to someone's request to go along their individual perception of reality.

Expecting coworkers to treat you with enough respect to you refer to you how you identify is a pretty basic workplace expectation. It's not a violation of your rights in any way if you get written up by HR for misgendering a colleague. Who are you to decide for them who they are?
