      I simply follow the rules, I don’t attempt to change them and force everyone else to follow mine.

      “Of course” because it should be obvious. You were taught english too.

      I would of course include Dr. as well, as that’s part of someone’s name. But as I’m slightly on the spectrum, when people start trying to change my language based on their whims, it throws me.

      I’m not going to start adding Xe and Xir and all sorts of rules to my ruleset because someone decided a name was too bland for them.

        What rules? Where do these rules come from? Who codified them? Can you please show me where they are laid out?

          It’s against the law! Please turn yourself in to the nearest police precinct.

          Being respectful of everyone’s person would hurt my lil brain tryin to remember all those words.
