Yuuuup. Yep. Yeah. It’s hard to advise people on the correct approach when there’s no clear cut answer that includes everybody.

I've been staring at this one uneasily for a couple years, and watching Contrapoints get torn to shreds for taking about it didn't help

I think an answer is normalizing asking for pronouns. If you ask one person, ask everyone. Also, start with, “my pronouns are ___, may I ask yours?”

thank you for pointing out that it's complicated, many people want to pretend that these issues are black and white but that's not the case

I'm non-binary and if someone was able to assume that from my presentation, it would make my entire week.

I ask pretty much everyone their pronouns when I meet them by telling them my own pronouns

Kiri Callaghan | Author | VO :
I try to ask in person rather than assume, and often give mine first. That way it feels more like asking for a name than because of someone’s

Not A Snake :
instead of asking for pronouns I usually give my pronouns which prompts everyone in the conversation to give their pronouns.

This is very closely tied into the casualness with which some non-binary folks shout “gender is fake”, etc

Also makes me think “oh they clocked me, and they STILL don’t know I want to use she/her” I know why they ask but it makes me so insecure.

I think the answer is to normalize asking for pronouns. If everyone asks everyone their pronouns, it doesn't other or alienate anyone
