I both agree with you that misgender is double speak and disagree that you should refer to a man in a dress as he. Calling someone who obviously wants to be referred to as she a he is disrespecting her wishes. It’s the they I don’t think is necessary. Dress as you wish to be addressed, and save your they stuff for the bedroom, a place I won’t be with you, so there is no necessity for me to know or care.

# Doublespeak
Doublespeak is thought control. It's a form of brain washing. When you engage in it you are reprogramming your brain to accept the assertion or premise without a logical foundation.
Suddenly, you cannot answer simple questions like, _What is a woman?_ without suffering intense cognitive dissonance.
It may seem impolite, but it's harmful to engage in Doublespeak. Your succumbing to peer group pressure and becoming divorced from reality.
Besides, pronouns are not an issue of preference? But a description of reality.
And until 5 minutes ago, everybody understood that.
I agree with everything you said. Pronouns are an expression of reality, and I’ll call it as I see it. Somebody with a beard and a mini skirt equals a person who is pulling a stunt to get attention. It’s she and he and unless we’re getting busy, I don’t care what’s between your legs, or what you say you identify as. I guess I’m old and stuck in my ways. So be it.
