Exactly. Nobody cares what you think of yourself, but people don't want to be forced to agree with you.
only90skidswillgetthis
If you know someone prefers to be called she and you refer to them by he anyway, you're allowed to be - but you're an asshole.
I don't tell the schizophrenic that the radio is really talking to them. A mental disorder is a mental disorder regardless of protests.
So I'm an asshole for not ceding reality to a fantasist?

If the child thinks he is a dinosaur I don't tell him his parents where pterodactyls.
Sassmachine
And you're still participating in the construction of their image by referring to them as "he." Might as well as call them by what they
prefer to be identified as then.
It does carry legal repercussions though some places.

It doesn't, that's just fear-mongering bullshit people use to justify hating something that has no effect on their lives.
and it doesn't mean you hate them. You just don't agree with their few of themself.
No, it does. http://www.snopes.com/transgender-pronouns-fine-nyc
Yes it does, NYC, intentional failure to use someone's preferred pronoun can be Penalized with a fine up to 125,000 dollars.

Because, per the law, intentionally doing so is considered discrimination. Discrimination always carries consequences.

The fact that he has to ask the question makes me think he's to much of a prick to understand that very simple answer.

Where you're missing the joke: there are people that want to be identified as wolves or squirrels or alien beings. This used to be 1/
3** missed an "is" before "being"
2/ something that could be joked about. Now thinking it is highly abnormal being interpreted by some as being some kind of bigot.
it's not, though.
He made a commonsense observation, and you reply with the sentiments of a social justice kitten: "I will not enact the labor to explain."
Are you saying Chappelle was making a common-sense observation or @mizmoose was? Because the latter has far more truth to it than the former
Chappelle. It's an extremely common sentiment, one which springs from facts that are true on their face.

I'm for LGTB rights, but I don't really get nor support transexuals. It's their right but dunno if they're doing what is healthy for them.
Guess if you're not 100% on board with something you're still wrong. Everyday I question calling myself a liberal if that's how it is.
Wait, you're for LGBT rights but you don't support transgender people? What do you think the T stands for? TACOS?!

That's great. You just start off by insulting me. Plus, your lack of actual information about transgender people is obvious.
1 And you didn't insult me first? You called me stupid so you already set the tone. As well it is apparent, but thing is with proper info
