Sen. Ted Cruz has introduced a bill that would limit the use of preferred names by trans people.
The irony, critics point out? The senator, whose legal name is Rafael Edward Cruz, uses a preferred name himself: Ted.

Both.

I think gender neutral pronouns is a better option.

The allegedly human male senator, who itself has chosen to be addressed by the preferred name "Ted", but looking at the Senate records its name is actually, legally, Rafael Edward Cruz. Would the, allegedly human senator, them self care to explain?
