If you respect trans people as being their identified gender (I do) then yes 100%. There is no reason not to, and as purely as we treat trans people globally I really doubt anyone is going to play the extremely long and bad con on this one like people seem to expect. And even if you don't agree with the pronoun "privilege" I feel like you can (hopefully) at least respect it, in much the same way that you wouldn't (hopefully) casually address everyone you know with "hey rear end in a top hat" Effectronica posted:Ethically, the only purposes for which someone might refuse to address people how they wish to be addressed are cruelty and the will to dominate, which are unethical. Very well said.

Note: while I do think SOME of the pronouns can be a little... involved, there's actually no reason at all for me to confront someone about it. If I'm legitimately worried for someone's well-being and I know them personally then I might say something, but otherwise there's no reason to deny their new pronouns no matter how seriously you take it unless you want to start a fight or just generally be an rear end

My point was no one cares if you disagree with their gender or whatever, just don't be a dick to people for no reason
