Is it that hard to consider that some people don't consider the feelings of everyone who hears/reads their thoughts before making them? If you've become so incredibly self aware to identify with a non-binary gender, you should know that your feelings might not be immediately addressed whenever anyone around you mention someone in the third person. I understand where you're coming from because accepting people as who they are is generally a good idea, but it's also generally a good idea to speak/type in a manner that makes sense since that's how communication tends to work.
