First of all, nobody here thinks calling bikes "she" is a major human rights offence. At worst it's sexist, at best it's stupid. Unlike pronouning a dildo or other sex toy, which is remarkably sensible and makes him less daunting. For example, my colleague Kenneth. Shall I fetch Kenneth? Meet my sexual associate, Kenneth.
You started off with a weird whataboutism question and then ironically described the discussion as childish. I have no idea what point you were trying to make, but if you want to keep calling bikes "she," go for it, no one is going to stop you. Whatever other views you have on trans rights/politics probably aren't relevant to a bike forum.
