My pronouns and my opinions on pronouns

-

updated 2020-12-14

-
-

-My pronouns are they/them. -That means when referring to me you would (for example) say "They are Trinity." -I'm a singular person and choose to use they/them pronouns mostly for pedantic reasons; -my "gender" (assuming such a thing exists) is my business alone and I see no reason to involve the public in that. -Maybe if I become more comfortable with myself that will change. -

-

-This might come as a surprise to people. -Most people I know get my pronouns wrong. -Nobody really asked me... -I'm cool with reaping the privilege that comes with being (perceived as) a male and currently fill out government forms so though I'm not one. -

-In general when it comes to pronouns I really agree with - - Richard Stallman's article on genderless pronouns in English - as it - -stands today, -except when it comes to "they" violating English grammar. -I find "they" and "them" to fit very well into English when used as singular pronouns -and when I need to refer to a thing between individuals and groups of people I just use -the proper noun. -I, too, will respect plural people whether this plurality is due to internal or external causes, -and I also will respect "xenogendered pronouns" (being gendered pronouns that are outside of -the set of "traditional pronouns" that is I/you/we/he/she/they/etc) but please just let me use -they/them because I can barely remember names. -
