Do you call Chelsea Manning, Chelsea Manning?

[Bluenorthwest]

39. How did DU respond to Manning's name change? Not very well. In a thread about calling her Chelsea

one straight DUer responded with this: The convicted felon who handed over state secrets to a foreign national. That was easy..That is what I call the former Private Bradley Manning.Next?"
And
"I will say that comparing the Manning name issue to a bride changing a surname through marriage is ridiculous at best and disingenuous at worst. The two situations are not analogous. A bride is not deciding to change genders when the surname is changed."
And
"The easiest thing to do is to just use the last name: Manning."

And
"When Manning is able to make a statement in public without any possibility of coercion, I will accept whatever label is requested.
Until then, isn't this too much like raw meat for the right, "hey look what the left is giving you, gays in the military and now a transgender traitor"? "

And
"So this Manning person declares one day "I am a woman" OK, so you're a woman. Big deal. Wanna be Chelsea, be Chelsea.
But, if you declared yourself Native American, would everyone have to call you that, too?"

And the succinct
" I don't have a problem calling him Chelsea."

That's all from one thread in which people also complain about all the other threads about calling her by her own name being so challenging for some.

Why do you ask?
