I identify as a male and prefer pronouns she/her. Pronouns aren't specific to sex, it's a preference that I require other people to abide by for my mental health.

And what of that of my mental health? For my mental health I require my self to call em as I see them.
How do you justify behavior enforcement of another human? Even when that behavior might have a adverse effect on their mental health?

This is a brilliant point that is true not just for gender — do you know how many NAMES there are out there? Millions of em! Keith, Sal, Harry, Keith...I could go on. And people actually want me to remember a specific name for them AND THEN address them by that name? GTFO, that's what I say! Nobody has the time or bandwidth to remember those specifics for EACH person they know. Gimme a break.
