To think I spent all those hours learning the difference between woman and women, just so I could interact with native English speakers, only to see them do shit like this ..

Yes, the American school system, known for it's ability to teach children things like "how an eclipse works" and "the earth is round", can really brainwash kids into anything.

I'm not being disingenuous. I'm literally quoting the Oxford dictionary.
What you're describing is very much having a feeling. You may refer to your feeling as a fact but that doesn't change anything.
The word pronoun does not have an LGBTQI connotation, except for in your mind, it is simply the word for how language gender people. The reason you think so is because the conservative right has weaponized the word by twisting it's connotation to mean "something gay and probably a paedophile".

Connotation
an idea or feeling which a word invokes for a person in addition to its literal or primary meaning.
Pronoun
a word that can function as a noun phrase used by itself and that refers either to the participants in the discourse (e.g. I, you ) or to someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the discourse (e.g. she, it, this ).
Basically you're saying you "have a feeling" pronouns mean something that it doesn't actually mean, because the conservative right has politicised the word to make a scapegoat of the approx 1-2% of the population that would prefer to choose their own. Am I close?

In the eighties the flamboyant gay man was popular, nowadays the fashion is more bear-daddy.
