CMV: It should not be normalized for people to state their pronouns when meeting each other for the first time

Firstly, I apologize if my views come off as bigoted or arrogant. I understand this may offend many people which is exactly the reason why I normally never talk about this kind of topic with anyone. I have been learning a lot about transgenderism lately, and while I definitely agree that we all deserve equality no matter gender or sexuality, I do not agree with all of the behaviours that the LGBT community is trying to push on straight and cisgender people.

I am all for respecting people’s pronouns, and if someone prefers pronouns other than he or she I will fully respect them. Of course, I do not completely understand the reasoning behind their preferences, but I will not use that to disregard their wishes. If you want to be referred to as they or Xe, I will do it. There is no point dehumanizing you over something as effortless to do as that. 

I simply just don’t understand why it should be normalized for all non LGBT people to introduce themselves with their pronouns. Approximately 5.3% of the Canadian population is considered LGBT (I am Canadian but when I looked up world percentage i couldnt find it), that leaves the other 95% percent of my country’s population as non LGBT. With that being the case, why is it necessary for me to introduce myself with my preferred pronouns to someone who has such a high chance to be cisgender and comfortable with their identity.

Again, if you want to introduce yourself with your preferred pronouns I’m fine. I agree it should be known that some people do that, and it shouldn’t have stigma surrounding it, but why is it so important to be normalized when 95% of the population is the same with their identity (cisgender and heterosexual)

Edit: I’m sure a lot of you have noticed I haven’t replied to many of the comments. I would definitely be awarding deltas right now but there is a lot of info I have to read, plus this is my first post to this sub and I am not 100% sure how everything works yet, but consider my view partially changed.

Edit 2: A lot of people are making the assumption that I find it a burden to state my pronouns, which is a fair assumption based on the words I chose to use, but I want to emphasize that it was not entirely what I meant. What I really was trying to say was that I feel that stating your pronouns when introducing yourself doesn’t have to be normalized because I find it’s ultimately irrelevant in my personal day to day life.

Is what you're saying here is that LGBT should feel free to state their pronoun on first meeting if they desire, but you also feel people should feel comfortable not stating their pronouns in which case whoever they're interacting with should have a right to use whatever pronoun they judge to be most accurate based on the appearance of the person they're talking to, with corrections if necessary?
