I've said it before and I'll say it again, but third-person pronouns are kinda bs and english needs more first-person pronouns

(that goes for most languages, not just english)

it's a little weird that pronouns can be such an important facet of gender identity when they mostly come up when the person in question isn't around

like, it's great hearing someone your correct pronouns. but even if I know your pronouns I will almost never have an opportunity to use them to your face

in this enby's opinion, it would be better the other way around - you should be empowered to affirm your own gender with every word you say, while someone talking about you out of earshot shouldn't have any say in the matter

@magical I honestly don’t understand that fixation on pronouns.
