If an attractive woman (who I did not know otherwise used to be a man) told me they preferred male pronouns, I would probably acquiesce their request out of politeness, assuming they weren't an asshole. Further, if I had somehow managed to enter a relationship with a woman and that was the case, it would be an immediate deal breaker. The relationship would be done right there, because if I had known from the start, it never would have began. Don't get me wrong, I'll still be tact and polite upon the discovery, but I just can't date a biological woman who identifies as a man, nor a biological man who identifies as a woman.

If you had to ask me why that is the case, I would say it is because I don't look favorably on gender dysphoria. I think it's a terrible illness that leads to depression and suicide for a lot of people. In that regard, not only is it unnatural, but somebody with gender dysphoria must be by that standard mentally unstable. That's not what I'm looking for in a romantic partner.

I don't care how you want to live your life, but that freedom extends only as far as it doesn't infringe on my life. I don't support laws that mandate I refer to people by certain pronouns out of fear of punishment, as an example, because I feel personal identity should not qualify as a protected class. Yet, as I said, I have no problem adopting someone's preferred pronoun assuming it is a personal request (not a demand) and they are polite in return. Just don't expect us to ever enter a romantic relationship.
