So why the lecture?

No one's giving you a lecture. We're having a conversation.

I think what people are referring to, though, is your statement upthread, where you noted that:

Transgenders should not expect me (or anyone else) to fall in line for them with what is uncomfortable for me (us).

What are you describing? What is it that you think transgenders expect you to do that requires you to "fall in line" that would be uncomfortable for you? From your allusions to conversations you've had with other ethnic or cultural groups (like the Amish), it sounds like you're talking about being uncomfortable with certain spoken norms of civility - but is it something else?
