I stated it because it's entirely possible they didn't actually understand this, and that pronouns were entirely "some trans thing". Words do have meanings and it causes problems when they're used imprecisely like this. You can see other reactions that show less helpful responses to this confusion, because to many people the statement does just sound ridiculous. The intended meaning is a lot more understandable, and I'm quite sympathetic to it. My message is not meant be some dunk or preach about moral superiority, just an explaination for why they're getting the reaction that they are (which could, on reflection, be less blunt, sorry)
