Except what is actually being done is someone advocating tolerance to those who are not gender normative. That's what the theists are actually objecting to, but they can't admit that.
Most theist tolerate, non-gender normative people, they might find them weird, or deluded, and don’t like to be forced to used certain gender pronouns, but they tolerate them as anyone else tolerates people whose beliefs they don’t agree with, or find wrong or deluded.
At worst they’re opposed to bathroom policies, and don’t like the idea of a male like myself using the same changing room, or bathrooms as their daughter, or other teenage boys showering along side them.
I know, you’ll say they’re not boys but people who identify as girls, but that’s silly, the logical extension of such practices is gender neutral areas, because the supposed non-normative meaning of male and female have no objective meaning.

People aren’t trying to push their sexual morality on anyone. We just want to be allowed to live our lives in peace and to be treated like human beings.
If the view you as deluded, like many atheists view the religious does that mean they’re treating you like less of a human?
I’d wager that the majority of people, treat you not much different than they would a typical stranger, with casual indifference, and don’t really care what you do with your genitals. They probably care more about their bills, than your sexual identity.
This is not to say some people haven’t treated you poorly, I’m saying most people wouldn’t.
