What is an appropriate response to someone saying "merci" in French?

We say “Je vous en prie" (You’re welcome) in formal responses

When someone says “merci” we says

We say "De rien" (It’s nothing) in casual responses.

You hold the door open for a lady and she stops in her tracks and screams at you, ‘Don’t hold the door for me! I’ll get it myself!’ What are your feelings or immediate reaction?

We say "Avec plaisir" (With pleasure) in formal responses

We say “Pas de problème” (No problem) in casual responses.

We say “Il n’y a pas de quoi" (Don’t mention it) in casual responses.

J.K. Rowling said that 65% of people in Britain are transgender. Where did she come up with that statistic?
