Which isn't at all inconsistent with calling people by the pronouns they identify with. Feminine pronouns are always used to refer to a person who identifies as female. Male pronouns are always used to refer to a person who identifies as male. Non-gendered pronouns (they/them) are always used to refer to a person whose gender is unknown or who doesn't have a gender.
In that rubric, they all mean the same thing. They just don't mean what you think they should mean (always a reference to biological factors), but instead they always refer to someone's gender identity. It's pretty basic stuff here - and just common courtesy.
Completely agree. Just common courtesy.
From upthread:
Trans girls want to compete in girls' sports equal to all the other girls.
How do we make that work? I want transgender kids to be treated equally, and I want girls sport to thrive. How to achieve both?
