Oh dear - there you go conflating the freedom of gender choice available to people with the free-for-all brought about by the artificial pronouns question. It gets totally ridiculous to get caught up in ambiguous meanings through the equally total violation of grammatical rules.

Much as I find this rainbow stuff irritating because of the virtue signalling, I’d point out that the Ukranian flag falls into a similar category of showing sympathy with a cause - though I’d not see that case as virtue signalling. Thete’s no grammar in a coloured flag!
