>>By the way if a person is dressed as a man refer to him as "HE" and if
dressed as a woman, refer to her as "SHE".  The word "It" can be used for
farm animals and pets or inanimate objects.

Of course, the confusing part is when you can't tell by the dress, voice,
makeup, or hair. What would you call this person then? Personally, I prefer
to use the gender pronoun most closely associated with the DNA imparted to
them by their Creator. But sometimes that is not easily discernible from
outward appearances.

Indeed all should be afforded the utmost courtesy and respect whenever
possible. But it is a two way street. It is disrespectful to me to ask me to
call them something contrary to their natural state.
