Last year, David French received backlash for calling his trans-identified male colleague, โshe.โ In 2018, heโd written that calling a man by female pronouns is a lie he couldnโt participate in. I asked him about this seeming change. โDo you equate calling a man who identifies as a woman โheโ as being unkind?โ French: โI donโt see the value in saying something that I know and they know is going to be hurtful to them. Itโs just normal, complete politeness and manners.โ
