'Man' and 'sir' aren't insults or slurs. Like many other lefty misogynists, what you're asking is for women to indulge male fantasy, to own own detriment. I respect the right of every human being to wear what they like, call themselves whatever they like and believe whatever they like about themselves, so long as none of that infringes on the rights of others. You've demonstrated very clearly that you do not respect women's right to name sex accurately, without which we can have no serious conversation about sex-based rights and safeguarding. Your 'respect' goes only one way. You want women to pretend men can be women so as to spare trans-identified men's feelings, but you appear not to have considered in the slightest the psychological toll it takes on women and girls, being compelled to speak a lie because it's their job to be 'kind'. You, personally, suffer no detriment whatsoever in calling a man a woman, to be 'nice.' You think it makes you a Really Good Guy and walk away feeling good about yourself, having lectured women on their 'bigotry'. You've spent many hours now proving you don't understand why using factual language is important to us. Again and again, you return to the poor hurt feelings of those born with penises. Nothing proves more conclusively that trans women are men than the instinctive, unquestioning sympathy men like you feel for them.
