CMV: I consider pronouns and gendered general term unimportant.

In my country there was a recent court case where a lady unsuccessfully complained that a bank was referring to her as (male and general) "customer" and not the "customeress" 
EDIT. "Customeress" is not an English term. "Kunde" and "Kundin" for customers in German are used like Actor and Actress in English.

Her point was that male general terms like "actor" diminish women. My counterargument to that is that I don't hear the same complaint from that or any other lady when there is a terrorism alert on the news, soldiers are killing, rapists are being talked about or people are looking for a culprit, those terms are generally male as well.

I am not even sure if this is in the same vain, or if I am convinced for the same reasons but the pronoun debate that seems to be evolving around ever freshly created new gender types is superficial and maybe even superfluous. I don't mind being a meanie and not using the desired term but am i really making a net negative impact by doing so?

Just to provide more information: It happened in Germany and in German nearly every job is gendered. The bank is called "Sparkasse" and the customer wanted to be addressed as "Kundin" (female version of customer) and not "Kunde" (male version).
