The problem with "correct" pronouns is that what's considered correct will differ depending on who's saying it. There's no confusion with "preferred" pronouns. Also, it is a preference, because some people use pronouns that are not the standard he/she/they ones. It's not their gender that they chose, it's (potentially) what pronouns they want to use to refer to said gender.
