My pronouns are <CODE>they/them</CODE>.
|
||||
That means when referring to me you would (for example) say "<B>They</B> are Deven."
|
||||
That means when referring to me you would (for example) say "<B>They</B> 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.

|

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.
