Thereafter, the OHRC clarified its policy by creating a Question and Answer on gender identity and gender expression which seeks to define these terms, and to set out that the refusal of a person to use the chosen/personal/preferred pronoun, or deliberately misgendering, will likely be discrimination.

Hmmm, maybe he did read it, and you were talking out your ass!

Really man, even if it doesn't actually come to pass and the legislation is altered to avoid this, you're saying he's wrong for being concerned?

And since you're probably ignorant of this fact I'll let you know, Peterson never said he wouldn't call a trans woman "she" or a trans man "he", he said he wouldn't use made up words like Zim and Xi and all this other phony nonsense. This is because he understands gender far better than you ever will, and while it isn't just two strict labels, it isn't a spectrum either. It's a bimodal distribution. I'll give you time to educate yourself on all this nonsense you got wrong.

that article is baseless fear-mongering

I'm absolutely saying that he's wrong for being concerned. Nonbinary people exist. Gender-nonconforming people exist. I've worked with many of them, and they've always been perfectly content with "they" as a pronoun.

Even if someone did want to use different gender-neutral pronouns, is that such a difficult thing to learn? It's like three new words.

And I don't particularly care whether people think gender is a spectrum or a bimodal distribution. the fact is that people exist who feel that a pronoun other than "he" or "she" describes them, and they should be respected too

edit: also, I assume this means you're conceding the other points. so, thank you for that.
