This applies to everything in life. I agree, a lot of small things in life are an annoyance, much like being mistaken for a woman because of a unisex name . those who are on the other side of the fence have a decision to make. Ignore it and keep quiet as to not look like a debbie downer or openly discuss your views be labeled an asshole. I think we all participate in both on occasion. You are exactly right "just deal with it and try not to get aggravated."
I hear you. My wife's name is Frances and she gets annoyed when people spell it Francis, which pretty much everyone does.
