Respecting people's gender is not carte blanche to make up rules. Like, I can't say my pronouns have italicized vowels during local business hours, and must use thee / thou / thine if you're disagreeing with me. That's simply not what pronouns are for. It's not why they matter.
Taking a 'shut up and do it anyway' approach to moderation is simpler, and perhaps understandable. But you have to acknowledge that's what you're doing. When you genuinely believe there is no limit, that gender is both super fucking important and so meaningless that it can be anything, people are going to try politely talking you through some immediately obvious problems.
