Eh. A friend of mine doesn't believe any of the gender stuff (his argument generally boils down to "what makes a man a man, or a woman a woman?" and he's basically never gotten a straight answer), so by proxy doesn't really believe that transgenderism is a thing, but he still treats people with respect and uses whatever pronouns they want and stuff. You can have your beliefs and not be an asshole. They're not mutually exclusive.

If there's no good answer to "what makes a man a man, or a woman a woman?" then cis gender is also not a thing and your friend is not a real man either, on accoutn of there being nothing that makes him one.

"Gender"-wise, yes, that's exactly the point. He's no more a "man" than I am a "woman" based on interests or how we feel, so it makes the most sense to him to get rid of the entire concept and just stick to biological sex. I'm not saying he's right, but it is how he feels-- but again, he treats everyone with respect and uses the pronouns they prefer, even when bringing them up in conversation they're not there for. Let me say it again louder for the people in the back: you can have your beliefs and not be an asshole. Shocking concept, I know.
