I'll refer to people however they want me to refer to them as provided it's nothing too laughably ridiculous or if I see no reason to suspect that they're utter pieces of shit that don't deserve my respect enough to ever associate with them, let alone call them by whatever pronoun I truely couldn't give a bit of a fuck about

None of my friends would ask because they are all adults with jobs and we come from a time were you just admitted you were gay.
 
Imagine a lifelong buddy came up to you, and was like, "dude, God told me that I'm the emperor of rome. if you could please call me "Caesar", and roman salute me from now on, I'd really appreciate it" and they wouldn't make a big drama out of it the few times you mess up while getting used to it, would you do it?

I try to be a polite person, and I don't like causing unnecessary conflict, but I believe that truthfulness and honesty are very important in relationships, and I don't believe that human beings are capable of changing biological sex, despite the strength of their convictions. It would be inauthentic of me to lie about what I believe the truth is repeatedly to someone that I actually considered my friend. Doing so would show a lack of respect (They can't accept reality as it is, so I must lie to shield them from it), and might even serve to harm them by reinforcing delusional behavior. If they have a y chromosome, they are not female. If they were born with a prostate and not ovaries, they are not female. If they feel like they are female, I'm more than willing to discuss the issue with them, and afford them the respect that they deserve, but I'm not going to lie to them. I lie to people that I don't respect.
 
We would no longer be friends. I don't need the hassle that comes with having these kinds of attention seekers as friends. There are plenty of normal people out there to be friends with.
I don’t see the downside to having a freind with a completely different word view-point to your own

I have plenty friends with different world views. I don't have any friends who are going to make me uncomfortable by demanding I deny an obvious reality and play into their mental illness. That is a stress and a hassle I can do without. I get enough stress and hassle from work.

Depends. What drugs do they have, and are they available somewhere else?

If your not friends with freaks and weirdos then your really missing out
 
I'd go with pronouns just so in the event I somehow come across them on some other site like Twitter, they can't directly accuse me of disrespecting their gender and the like. That said, if they go for some weird ass otherkin pronouns, yeah I'm just gonna laugh at that because that literally just sounds stupid and wouldn't look like something that goes well with people that just going by he/her/they.
 
Necroing but honestly I am okay with preferred pronouns (if people aren't dicks) - SO LONG as it's not neo pronouns. I'm not gonna take your stupid bullshit if you seriously expect me to say "hy/hym" or "xie/xim" or whatever the fuck.

I'm not gonna call you "it" either. That's just weird.

That said, I'm not gonna bother with Chris Chann and Jonathan Yaniv, people who live up to the stereotype of using tranny shielding to sexually harass women and/or invade their spaces.

I've had normies bitch at me for calling Chris "he" as if he deserves that and is a totes pure trans queen. No, he's a rapist who got pink-pilled into trannyism because he thought it'd get him laid. I'm not gonna play his game or anyone like that.
