I'm terrible with names, but that's my own problem. I don't do voicemail or pronouns either. The rest of it is being ostracized for refusing to acknowledge the black floor tiles are lava. Redefining the reality of others is literal brainwashing. In fostering this sort of environment you're running a cult, not a company.

  She says she doesn't, but I is clearly a pronoun.

It's funny to whine that, "redefining the reality of others is literal brainwashing," but you obviously feel quite comfortable redefining the reality of the people you misgender for them.

  Nice try. "Misgendering" happens to be my favorite example of modern sophistry. When you're afflicted with gender dysphoria, technically it's you who's engaging in misgendering since you refuse to recognize your own gender (or its pronouns). It starts with you. But self-loathing doesn't make for a compelling persecution story, so you project it onto me. It's my fault. I'm hurting you, by not validating your beliefs. This is actual fucking coercion. I thought we're all about consent these days? I don't consent to you mindfucking me. You make it sound like I go out of my way to rub it in people's faces, but I don't. I just want to be left alone. I'll call anybody whatever they want, if they address me as Oh Glorious Leader in return.

    ("These days?" When were "we" not about consent?) Maybe you're having trouble finding companies that won't fire you because companies are selecting for employees who recognize peers as actual humans. You won't take my advice, but I think you should consider that other perspectives exist and try to grow.
