The harm being done is that we're denying reality. And that's a slippery slope. Embracing false reality to avoid hurting someone's feelings or confrontation is never the answer. It's compassionate to tell the truth. That is what love is.

It’s OK to think that pronouns are funny. It’s OK to feel as though pronouns are strange. What’s not OK is to intentionally make someone feel less human than you because they want to be identified with a certain pronoun that you refuse to use. What harm is it doing to call someone a pronoun that you don’t agree with? Stop being divisive and start trying bridge that gap. If someone wants me to call them a dinosaur I’ll do it if I know it would be offensive if I don’t. Life is too short to start arguments over this type of thing.
