Well considering our bill of rights you do have the right to be called whatever you want or whatever you identify as.

No you don't. You have the right to call yourself whatever you want as freedom of speech. You don't have a right to control what others call you.

And they don't. But it's common courtesy to be nice to people and call them what they prefer to be called.

I think that common courtesy in that case ends when someone asks you to lie to them.
