I’ve had several chats with other Christians about whether it’s disrespectful to ‘misgender’ someone. Is it perpetuating a lie? Or is it loving to refer to someone by their preferred pronouns? That’s a question of personal conscience – but if someone (a Christian, for the purposes of this article) doesn’t feel able to comply with the person’s preferences – they may risk facing legal consequences.
