In the same way, someone who believes gender is a harmful cultural construct shouldn't be forced to call people 'he' or 'she.'

I'd disagree with both of them but people are allowed to be wrong. We can't tell them they must say, eg that humans are apes if they deny it
-
I take your point. But, this is a teacher relationship. So my point is, I could have a relationship with a colleague but must accept...

... that I must take care not to make a colleague feel uncomfortable (harassment). A teacher has a higher bar still given their position.

So he should show good sense. If a student has a chip on their shoulder, deal with it sensibly, don't deliberately use a pronoun they hate
-
I think this would be sensible too. And kind. I just don't think you can make it a rule that people have to express certain gender ideas.

What's wrong with an institutional rule that says members must address others in the way they prefer to be addressed? It's basic courtesy.
-
We can't enforce beliefs on ppl. They must be allowed their own views on gender & everything else.
