    Is your dislike of bananas an important part of your identity, both personally and how you are treated by society at large? Does making it known that you dislike bananas either verbally or through your appearance lead to a realistic possibility of facing abuse and opression, not limited to potential loss of livelihood or life?

    If not, perhaps, you can see how the two things aren’t very comparable.

      No, but how people refer to me in the third person is also not an important part of my identity.

      Someone’s choice of the pronoun to assign to me says more about them and the nature of our relationship than it says about my identity.
