I think the whole pronoun issue has become very difficult. Seems like never a day passes without some issue arising about people using the wrong pronoun and being offended. I know I get confused sometimes as well. Then as Jesse mentioned, when it evolves to a third person situation, we tend to handle it differently. Our guardrails can fall away as we evert to the training of our lives and not the latest social rules.

I wouldn?t put too much weight to the situation you encountered Andrea, if all else continues to be fine in the future.
