The extreme left is hell-bent on forcing the rest of us to accept the principle that gender is not determined by biology but by whatever a person says. In that crusade, they have many allies, including social media companies. Case in point: About two weeks ago, I received a suspension from Twitter for identifying a transsexual as a transsexual.

... The suspension seemed absurd given the definitions of “misgender” and “deadname.” Misgendering entails referring to a person, usually a transgender person, with a pronoun or other word that does not reflect the sex that person wants to appear as. Deadnaming means referring to a transgender person by his or her birth name instead of his or her chosen name.
