Sweden has gender neutral schools.
Conan:
i think a better way to phrase the argument you guys are presenting is is being respectful to their self image that big of a deal
and deus has already answered yes, since he "doesnt want to participate in perpetuating their illusion" or something. aka he doesnt give a forget about respecting their gender identity
i dont think you guys will go anywhere new with this

And you only define social conversations by political opinions if the only thing you do is talk about politics. And I don't.

If you look like a massive friend then should I call you "Massive friend" or "boy lover" just because you look gay?

Once again, you guys have stuff comparisons. Misses and miss is a title referring to someone's marital status and not comparable to claiming to be nonbinary. Please try again.

Massive friend and boy lover aren't genders but you're free to insult me at your leisure. Free country.

nonbinary is a legal recognition in about 4 states of the us. if you live in cali, oregon , new york or ohio, then it's an actual gender status. in those cases it is entirely comparable
once agan, being respectful to people in general is objectively good. being disrespectful is objectively bad. you have literally no reason to disrespect someone because of their identity unless it like, personally angers you at an emotional level that someone else just wants to feel comfortable
