What pronoun would you like to be referred to as?

Hell yeah! You got blapbutt shartnoodles. Could I abbreviate it, or would that make a derogatory slur somehow?

Abbreviate it, no.
Derogatory slur....its the Trollkingdom way, I'd be offended if you didn't turn it into an insult.
 
Listen, it took me years to learn the proper pronouns for men, women, and things, and now that I have mastered it, I will most certainly not start all over again just because ppl are too bored to come up with something more interesting to be offended by. Fuck that noise

What if schools begin requiring students to use varying pronouns when writing papers?! I would assume historical figures would be reffered to as the person they had always been refered to as-for example George Washington would not be referred to as "she" or only "they". But I wonder how papers are written now-they still do papers don't they?! (See what I did there?)

Here is an article about being an ally to a trans person and a paragraph from the article:

2. Use a person’s correct gender pronouns when referring to or speaking with them. If you aren’t sure what pronouns to use, it’s alright to politely ask. For example, you could say “what pronouns do you use?” or “Hi, my name is Shane and my pronouns are they/them. What about you?” Do not ask for a transgender person’s “real name.” You can also join this DoSomething.org campaign to challenge your classmates to not use masculine/feminine pronouns for a day.

Woa, what? How do I call out gender policing?! 0_0

. Call out gender policing that discriminates against a person’s level of masculinity or femininity when you see it.


I guess the article answered my question. I didn't see that hidden link!
 
A person's correct pronouns are their biologically correct pronouns. If someone has body dysmorphic disorder, fine, but that doesn't obligate me to conform to their psychological malfunction.
