Until relatively recently I’d have erred on the side of using preferred pronouns on the basis that it was no skin off my nose. Unfortunately trans issues have had something of a ratchet effect over the past 10 years where one thing is granted and they move on to the next. Using pronouns in order to #BeKind is what is enabling some to argue that we now need to let them in women’s safe spaces in order to #BeKind because we have already surrendered the argument that they are a “she”, hence th e next step is logical.

In multiple cases where women have complained they have been disciplined at work and several of those cases have resulted in industrial tribunals. The ones that go to full public hearings never end well for trans activism because trans activists like to keep insisting that the law is on their side, right up to the point when a judge tells them it isn’t.

Final point, I will have to dig out the figures but I’m fairly sure that in the UK, there are a disproportionately high number of trans-identifying males amongst those incarcerated for sex crimes. The trans issue is complex and by no means all of them are perverts (just the same as by no means all of them are suffering a psychological condition), but a subset of them certainly are.
