@aquirdturtle It’s not a friend or two if have to have a real conversation with, it’s the social community at large; and a simple conversation or two is not going to fix that. Also, as obvious and clear the issue of pronouns appears to you, I think you may overestimate how well this matter may be considered “settled” in the greater US.

In my experience, sharing your pronouns goes beyond merely showing support for transgender individuals. In the conservative circles I run in it can be viewed as signaling one’s “wokeness” or support of “the liberal agenda” and that action can have repercussions in social circles. It’s not seen as pro social behavior, rather as a strictly political behavior.

"a Credit Score is nothing but their estimate of your reliability" - Yes, but their estimate of your reliability will most likely factor into the interest rate this individual will have to pay should they ever decide to buy a house or finance a vehicle. Also it's worth pointing out that the asker doesn't have to accrue interest to build credit.
