Yes exactly and this is similar to what I tell older conservatives. It doesn't matter if there's 70 genders or what a woman is or any of that. They don't have to know all that if it's overwhelming. They only need to know what pronouns someone wants to be called. That's it. Respect that, and they don't have to talk about any of that other stuff or worry about it. It's none of their business and that's okay.
Whenever they get all bent out of shape I just redirect them back to that. Because I'm sorry, some of these people are in their seventies. They literally cannot rewire the scaffolding in their brain to delete the gender binary that they constantly referred to during their lives. It would be like breaking your arm and rehealing it at that age. We don't really need them to understand, we just need them to be respectful.
