1) The side of the transgender high school athletes debate that seems to have the maximal amount of “respect for persons” is the one that doesn’t allow transgenders on female teams. Just because it will show respect for more people will not make it the best choice, because transgenders are not only men to women there are also women to men. If you deny all transgenders the right to compete you are also denying women to compete in male sports which falls under the Title IX law. I would say letting a transgender compete in male or female sports would show the most respect for all.
2) I think we should try to have “respect for persons” always, however, some interactions with people make that difficult. I would say show kindness to everyone because most of the time you get what you put out returned to you. If you cannot respect someone you can be kind and let them earn the respect. I think respect is earned before it can be given.
3) I do think having the intent to be respectful and Kind is sufficient to ensure your actions are moral toward others. Having respect for all is sometimes hard when some may feel disrespected. Either side that is taken on Title IX is doomed to cause some disrespect for part of the students.
4) It is definitely not possible for a person, administrator, policy maker, law, etc., to be respectful of all people all of the time. Our culture is made up of so many different types of people (sex, race, age, disabled, etc.) that it is almost impossible to be respectful to everyone. Someone will always feel disrespected.
