@kyrstenjohnson9752 Beyond the singular "they" pronoun being correct grammatically, it's also far from a modern invention. 'They' has been used as a singular pronoun since at least the late 14th century. ex. 'They' pay their rent on time.
Like I said, you wouldn't use a pronoun like she/he when speaking directly to someone, you'd use their name.
When speaking about them-- to another, is when you would have the occasion to use the pronouns you're advocating in favor of like you're describing, however; you seem to be having difficulty with the concept. You wouldn't say, "Excuse me-- She, pass the salt", now would you? Well, maybe you would, but that's not how someone who understands how the English language works would use it.

He has NO case. The point is people are claiming to identify as something other than what they are, and then insisting that the rest of society perceive them, as they perceive themselves subjectively.
One could, for example-- identify as being taller or more attractive, or intelligent, or physically fit than they actually are, objectively speaking.
Gay and Lesbian people don't seem to have difficulty recognizing men and women and discerning the differences to suite their preferences.
Gender refers to the sex assigned at birth and the social aspects of being male or female, respectively.
Male a female are biological categories, which are fixed and permanent, and one's feelings about them don't alter reality about it being true and correct.
The confusion in terminology seems to be rooted in the fact that they're inappropriately conflating personality traits and temperament, as if/though they're synonymous with gender, and they are not.
