OTOH, it does present a problem. While I wouldn't use any of your niece's suggestions, I'm not sure what I'd say if someone tried to correct me. I don't want trans to insist to me that I use their preference; I equally don't want to be a belligerent asshole about it. That's just committing the same transgression* in reverse.

They can correct me. I'm not playing the game. Their delusions can end at the end of their nose.
There are times when one should be polite and go along to get along. There are other times where you can't make me conform to societal madness and I just flat-ass ain't doing it.

And they're not whining about it.
The people whining about it are the customers who don't like the freedom being given to the employees. The Halifax isn't forcing it on anybody.
In this case, it's the anti-woke bunch who are being all how-dare-you about things.

So according to you, it's perfectly fine if the bank allows its employees to offend csome of its customers, but it's not ok for those customers to do their business elsewhere...... they should just suck it up and take it....
Somehow I think if the cause of this was that bank employers were passing out Christian reading material nd some of the customers went to other banks because of it your opinion would be the opposite of what it is now...
The bank, and its employees, have the right to call themselves whatever they want. The customers have just as much right to go somewhere else to do their banking.

No, they can leave if they want. That's fine, it's really up to them.
But I don't think they will. It's a lot easier to complain on the internet than it is to change banks.

The one time I have been corrected I responded by insisting that I refer to them as “comrade” and they refer to me by the same. It certainly ended the nonsense there and then.
Elbows up!

I see your point, but the thing is I don't care enough to make any response to it. I would ignore it and go about my business. If they want to pursue it, THEN I do want to be a belligerent asshole.
Like my cop uncle says - "I'd rather they think I'm an asshole, because then I don't have to be an asshole."

Yeah, I like this. Just ignore the correction and carry on.
"You seem like a man who -- "
"Woman. I'm a woman now."
" -- likes the finer things in life, so I recommend etc etc."Then if they pursue it, say something like, "I don't want to". The end.
Or, "Okay, Comrade." LOL.
