PRONOUNS Yeah, it's good to know. SometimesI get oFFended if people assume my pronouns without asking, you know? I rarely mind a polite question about the words use to describe myself, as so I never did ask: which I like ze/hir, thanks For asking, Mel! are a language's shortcuts used to describe people, places, or things. We're most interested in the uses for people In English, personal pronouns tend to be gendered, though since the 1800s there's been a movement For a gender-neutral pronoun to avoid awkward contractions like s/he, which appeals greatly to Folks outside the gender binary pronouns should I use for you? long as it's kind I used to think these were all the pronouns out there For people, but the more FolksI meet, the more I learn. Choosing our own pronouns can be really empowering pronoun gender example he/him masculine He left his dog with his pal. she/her Feminine She took her power tools. they/them neutral They are a good Friend. ze/hirneutralZe likes to brush hir teeth.oee phe/per neutral Phe named per goldfish Bob. thon/thon neutral Thon did all of thon's dishes, l | | tey, co, ie named per goldFish Bob.e neutral Ey looked at em skeptically.yne tar She 16 hur try it! the "pronoun game" is a Fact of life For many transgender Folks and their allies.

I just love how its like "Please ask people what pronouns they use!", yea, go do that and people will wonder what is wrong with you. Most people would be very offended that you can't tell if they are male or female.
