I support his right not to do that and respect him for standing up for free speech although I myself will use pronouns.

He could just as well argue that he should be allowed to make lewd remarks at his students, justified by free speech. Seems absurd.

I don't see that. Not sharing someone else's concept of gender is not the same as making sexual comments about them.

No, wantonly misgendering someone is worse. It's him telling them that his opinion about who they are is more valid than their own.
