MIsgendering, i.e., using a person's given name -- something called Deadnaming -- rather than the name they've chosen to match their perceived gender identity, or not using the person's Preferred Pronouns they say match their gender identity, is now a controversy in the U.S. Christians struggle with this challenge - do they refuse to use a transitioned person's new name or preferred pronouns in the interest of truth or do they use these new names and pronouns as a matter of respect for the other person?
All of this is rooted, of course, in people's rejection of the idea God created human beings and determined their immutable biological sex. It becomes more than a philosophic or theological debate when corporations or schools demand employees use new names or preferred pronouns in the name of inclusiveness and creating safe workspaces for transgender or nonbinary employees.
