If someone insists on pronouns, I just don't refer to them by pronouns. they only get their proper name, since they are so special and need everyone to know it. If for some reason i'm talking about the same person multiple times, it slows down the conversation so much that it really begins to grate on people, not because of me but because of the individual. Granted, I have not had many encounters with transtrenders since I moved out to the rural area, but it worked quite well back in the big city.
On paper it is a funny move. In reality you are conceding to their demands and in a sense giving their foolish position a platform and legitimacy. You will be accused of hate spee H while your kids grow up in a world that is unable to see how silly the whole thing was in the begenning.
