Just because you wouldn't want to have sex with them doesn't mean that you have the right to disrespect them either, if they want to be called ma'm that's their right and if you don't do it you're a bad person. It is not acceptable to disrespect other people because you disagree with their gender identity.
If they WANT to be called "ma'am", that is their right. I agree. They have the RIGHT to WANT anything.

I am under no obligation to become a liar just because someone wants me to play pretend with them, though. If I refuse to call a person with a penis "ma'am", that's my right, and if you don't tolerate it, you're a bad person. It is not acceptable to try to FORCE other people to lie.

This is how "tolerance" works. I don't have to ACCEPT something to tolerate it. You don't have to ACCEPT my refusal to use preferred pronouns instead of reality to tolerate my right to that.


Cheers.

    On the other hand there are those chandeliers with like 50 lightbulbs and that would be a bit expensive to replace with smart bulbs.

    Anbernic's SP clone will be $60 and I think I'll buy it. Looks decent enough and it will stop me from drooling over every single new handheld that comes out.
