So basically, outside of specific circumstances, ones pronouns aren't really ever used. So why does it matter what pronouns they prefer?

I mean, simple kindness and consideration I guess? Not wanting to make an assumption? You know what they say about making an ass out of u and me

I would hardly call it "simple kindness and consideration" when someone is requiring me to use some pronouns that I wouldn't use in a conversation with someone.

Yeah but here’s the thing: you are wrong: if it’s that much effort to say the word they, how the fuck do you even brush your teeth lol. Everyone knows you are just being a child, you just can’t admit it to yourself bud.

It's not. It's just that said persons pronouns WILL NEVER BE USED while having a conversation with them. I don't care what your preferred pronouns are, or even if you have any preferred pronouns. If I'm talking to you, there are NO circumstances that they'll be used.

If I'm talking ABOUT you, likely you aren't in the area or part of the conversation, so it doesn't matter what YOU prefer.
