LOL!
There is a change coming into the language involving the word "they," when used as singular.

Work asked our pronouns, I told them mine were master, boss, and king. They said those weren't pronouns but I said we could go to HR. They then said I would be no longer required to put them on emails lol
Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

That was funny.
I'm seeing people put their "preferred pronouns" on email signature blocks.
If her name is Jennifer, I am calling her--her. She can deal with it. I'm in an industry that encourages that in our signatures. I haven't done and won't but I don't really care either way. My parents gave me a first name that could be either gender, I work in a woman dominated industry. I am referred to as "she" on a regular basis and have never been offended, I just chuckle. If some trans person gets offended if they are called he or she...that sounds more like a personality issue.

My preferred pronouns are "your royal majesty" or the sovereign". If you refuse to use these, you are a bigot. You've been warned.

Got to agree. It's either XX or XY...it's all about science. You can lop things off and take hormones, but at your core you're still either XX or XY.

Yup, I remember distinctly, you said "Captain Poopy Pants". I really don't see the need for an upgrade, as the original fits you perfectly.   Charlie
