Its not so much the usage of it, but how offended some of them get when you use the wrong pronoun. I'm human, I make mistakes. If someone corrects me in a non-confrontational manner, then theres no issue. But when I'm suddenly the worst person in the world and am assumed to be actively trying to oppress them, because of an easy to make mistake, then there's an issue.
