      We have been calling individuals "they " or "them" for centuries, just not in the way that we are now being forced to do.
      It is not uncommon, and I _guarantee_ that you have done this yourself to respond to a query such as "There is someone here to see you, but they don't have an appointment" with "Ask them if they can come back later". I am also willing to bet that you NEVER said "Is it a man or a woman?" so that you could respond with "OK ask him/her is he/she can come back later", so no, it is not "incorrect" to refer to someone as they/them.
      What IS incorrect (and by that I mean absolutely WRONG) is for you to become a target if you do not do so.

So I'll always say he or she man or women because sex and gender are the same and is t a spectrum isn't basic know.

They do not NEED for others to use their preferred pronoun; they WANT that, but they do not need it. Therefore, personally, I will not lie and call a man a she and a female a he.

Being polite or cordial is generally speaking a good thing and only in rare circumstances would I advocate against it.

He had far bigger issues in his position of responsibility than kowtowing to some brainwashed undergraduate's concept of social justice. Fortunately she didn't raise a fuss with the administration.

    The current intense focus on gender identity, particularly the question of whether men can be women, can be seen as a form of ideological imposition that is absurd to its core but serves the purpose of ideological subversion perfectly. This is a tactical maneuver, not a spontaneous social evolution. It is a deliberate attempt to redirect public discourse from critical issues such as economic stability and national security to less impactful, yet highly contentious social debates. This is a classic move in the subversion playbook because it creates a smokescreen for destabilizing activities.

    The problem is it is impossible to seek Truth if one is unwilling to approach it with courage.
