title: 'Pronouns.page' domain: 'en.pronouns.page' description: 'Usage examples of personal pronouns and gender neutral language.' home: link: 'Homepage' header: 'Pronouns' headerLong: 'List of pronouns' welcome: 'Welcome to pronouns.page!' intro: > We're creating a source of information about nonbinary and gender neutral language. why: 'What''s the deal with pronouns?' about: - > Pronouns are those words that we use instead of calling someone by their name every time we mention them. Most people use {/he=“he/him”} and {/she=“she/her”}, so we automatically assume which one to call them based on someone's looks. But it's actually not that simple… - > Gender is complicated. Some people “don't look like” their gender. Some prefer being called in a different way from what you'd assume. Some people don't fit into the boxes of “male” or “female” and prefer more neutral language. - > This tool lets you share a link to your pronouns, with example sentences, so that you can show people how you like to be called. - > Why does it matter? Because of simple human decency. You wouldn't call Ashley “Samantha” just because you like that name more or because “she looks like a Samantha to you”. Or even if she does have the name “Samantha” in her birth certificate but she absolutely hates it and prefers to use “Ashley”. And it's the exact same story with pronouns – if you don't want to be rude towards someone, please address them properly. The only difference is that we usually know names, but not pronouns. We introduce ourselves with a name, but not pronouns. Let's change that! pronouns: 'List of popular pronouns' generator: header: 'Generator' description: > You can also use this tool where you fill out the blanks in sentences and generate a link ready to share with others. button: 'Show the generator' header2: 'Generate a link' base: 'Based on' alt: 'You can also enter interchangeable forms in each field separately, eg. him&her = “him” or “her”.' pronunciation: 'You can also specify the pronunciation after a pipe character, using IPA, eg. faerself|fɛɹsɛlf = “faerself” pronounced as /fɛɹsɛlf/.' whatisit: 'What''s the deal with pronouns?' mission: header: 'Our mission' summary: 'We fight for freedom, respect and inclusiveness in language.' freedom: > Freedom – so that everyone can use for themselves whatever pronouns they feel describe them best. respect: > Respect – so that other people's pronouns are respected. inclusiveness: > Inclusiveness – so that when we're referring to a person we don't know or a group of people, we don't assume their gender and don't exclude them for any reason. pronouns: header: 'Pronouns' headerLong: 'Pronouns' examples: 'Example usage in sentences' plural: 'Plural' intro: 'My pronouns are' normative: 'Normative' alt: button: 'Generate a link to interchangeable forms' header: 'Interchangeable forms' raw: 'interchangeable' generated: 'Those pronouns have been created using a generator.

Even from a purely biological standpoint we distinguish chromosomal sex, genetic sex, hormonal sex, phenotypic sex… They aren't necessarily congruent with each other, they don't have to be binary. {https://twitter.com/RebeccaRHelm/status/1207834357639139328=(more info here)}. And when we get to the cultural aspect, “gender” is a social construct. Depending on time and location being “a woman” or “a man” can mean having radically different rights, duties, norms… In Europe men used to wear high heels and stockings, and native peoples of North America have been recognising a third gender for centuries {https://gender.wikia.org/wiki/Two-Spirit=(two-spirit)}, etc. etc. - > Nonbinary is an umbrella term describing the identity of people who don't fit the binary man/woman distinction. It includes for instance people who are {https://gender.wikia.org/wiki/Agender=agender}, {https://gender.wikia.org/wiki/Gender_Fluid=gender fluid}, {https://gender.wikia.org/wiki/Demigirl=demigirls}, {https://gender.wikia.org/wiki/Demiboy=demiboys}, and {https://gender.wikia.org/wiki/Non-binary=many many others}. - > Nonbinary isn't necessarily something “between” masculinity and femininity. More like “beyond”. Nonbinary people don't have to be androgynous, don't have to use neutral pronouns, etc. It's about being free from gender roles, not about creating new ones. why-respect: question: 'Why should I respect some strange pronouns?' answer: - > Because addressing people in the way they want to be addressed is the basis of social relations. You wouldn't call Ashley “Samantha”, you wouldn't drop “sir”/“madam” when addressing your supervisor, etc. And there's people who don't want to be called either “{/he=he}” or “{/she=she}”. If you don't accept that, it only shows you in bad light. - > “Strange pronouns” are just a matter of getting used to. made-up: question: 'Those pronouns are made up!' answer: - > Yes. Yes they are. And so is every single word in every language. Some words are just older than others. how-to-know: question: 'How do I know how to address someone?' answer: - > You can just ask! Yes, it might be a bit awkward, but the more we do it, the less awkward it gets. If we can ask somebody their name, why not their pronouns? - > (Just please don't phrase it as “are you a boy or a girl?”. This question implies that there's just two correct answers, and it suggests unhealthy curiosity about someone's genitals. Instead, you could just ask “what are your pronouns?” or “how should I refer to you?”) - > It's also important to normalise simply telling people your pronouns when you introduce yourself. “Hi, I'm Michæl, {/he=he/him}”. It's not hard – but for trans and nonbinary people it means so much! It's even easier done online: just put your pronouns (or a link to examples from our website) to your bio. - > Remember also that many people might use a different name and a different set of pronouns depending on situation. They might not be out among friends or coworkers yet, but among friends be comfortable living their truth. Be mindful. You might for instance ask them “which pronouns should I use in front of your boss?”, etc. - > Some people give multiple pronouns, eg. “{/he&she=he/she}” or “{/they&he=they/he}”. That means they like all of those forms. Usually, the first one is the preferred one. who-uses-it: question: 'Does anyone even use that?' answer: - > Yes! Millions of enbies all around the world. Every pronoun listed here has someone that actually uses it in everyday life. authority: question: 'Are those nonbinary pronouns approved by some kind of authority?' answer: - > Language is not some kind of god-given, ancient magic set in stone. It's just a tool that we use to communicate. When we change as a society, and when the world around us changes, we adjust the language we use to be able to better describe it. We're its users, so we're the authority on how we want to use it. - > Dictionaries take their time to start including those changes, which doesn't make the change illegitimate in any way. But eventually the new forms, if used often enough, get included in dictionaries. {https://www.merriam-webster.com/words-at-play/singular-nonbinary-they=Merriam Webster}, for example, accepts the use of {/they=singular “they”} as a nonbinary pronoun. - > You can also read some {https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&q=neopronouns=academic papers} on neopronouns. bio: question: 'Why should I put my pronouns in bio on social media?' answer: - > If you're cis (= not trans) and you use “{/he=he}” or “{/she=she}” matching your gender, you might think that your pronouns are obvious. And yeah, maybe that's true – as long as your name is mentioned in the profile (and is traditionally male of female) or if you have your picture as avatar. Many people don't – so it's hard to guess how they want to be called. - > But it's mostly about something more than that: your pronouns might be “obvious”, but there are people whose pronouns are not. They want to be addressed correctly, whether or not they “pass” as their gender, whether or not they have transitioned (or if they want to transition at all). Nonbinary people usually “don't look nonbinary”, we don't owe anyone androgyny. - > Sharing our pronouns is very important for trans, nonbinary and gender nonconforming people. Alas, it also exposes and singles us out. But if cis people do the same, it means the world for us. It makes us feel more comfortable, safe and welcome {https://avris.it/blog/why-everyone-should-have-pronouns-in-their-bio=(more reasons here).} change: question: 'Can I change my pronouns?' answer: - > Of course! Nobody is surprised when someone changes their views, style, hobbies… So why would it be strange that they discovered a part of their identity, stopped liking their name, discovered a label that fits them well, etc.? get-used-to: question: 'Is it strange that I can''t get used to my own new pronouns?' answer: - > Not at all! After many years of using pronouns congruent with one's gender assigned at birth it's easy to forget oneself when switching to different ones. - > Pronouns ≠ gender. Your gender won't drastically change just because you got confused once when someone called you “them”. Don't worry. Experiment. See what fits you best. preferred-pronouns: question: 'Why shouldn''t I say “preferred pronouns”?' answer: - > Because this phrase suggests that someone's pronouns are just a whim. If someone just “prefers” to be called she, he won't _really_ feel bad, if I call him a “he”, right? They look like a guy, after all, so it's gonna be easier for me! - > No! It's our pronouns. Not our “preferred pronouns”. It's our names, not our “preferred names”. If you care about your trans and nonbinary friends and loved ones, then call them the right way. gender-pronouns: question: 'Why shouldn''t I say “gender pronouns”?' answer: - > Because gender ≠ pronouns. Pronouns are just grammar. Nonbinary folks can use binary pronouns, some lesbians use {/he=he/him} for cultural reasons, etc. - > Simply say “pronouns”. flags: question: 'Can you add this flag? Can you remove that flag?' answer: - > No. - > Maintaining the list of flags and labels is an increasingly time-consuming task for our team. It's also challenging in terms of filtering out trolls and vandals from valid, good-faith identities. We don't want to be identity police. And we don't want to spend all our time on managing flags either. It's a project about language and pronouns, after all, not about flags. They're just a bonus. - > We did our best to select a list of flags that are the most popular and, to our best knowledge, generally accepted. We are not planning to extend or shrink that list. - > We are aware that a few flags might not be liked by some (eg. because of a history of TERFs trying to take over a term and make it transphobic, because of multiple confusing definitions, or even because of aspects of a life of a mythical character). We are queer and trans ourselves, we care about our trans siblings. Unfortunately, it's really hard to make such decisions when we get messages both from trans people asking to add a flag they honestly identify with, and also from other trans people asking to remove it because it somehow hurts trans people. It's not like history of every label is clear or like there's an authoritative source to look it up. And even if queerphobes try to make some terms hurtful, we believe in the community's power to reclaim hateful terms. - > If you don't like a flag, just don't use it. If your flag is missing, just upload it (it will be marked as user-generated to mitigate vandalism). custom-pronouns: question: 'My pronouns aren''t listed' answer: - > There's a generator on the homepage, you can use it to create a link to any pronoun set you like. - > You can also just list the five forms using slashes, eg. {/ze/zem/zir/zirs/zirself=ze/zem/zir/zirs/zirself}. Keep in mind that all five forms are required in that case, otherwise the app can only guess what exactly you mean. unlisted-cards: question: 'Can someone search for my card?' answer: - > We don't publish any list of active usernames that one could search through or open them one-by-one. People should only know your username, if you share a link with them (or if they randomly guess it). - > Through {https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/crawling/block-indexing=noindex} and {https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/robots/intro=robots.txt} we ask search engines to stay away from the cards. Keep in mind, though, that not all of them respect such directives, and that we've only added them recently, so the webpages already crawled by them earlier (eg. when their crawlers stumbled upon a publicly posted link to your pronouns.page card) might stay in their cache for some time. - > You decide what's in your card – remember that depending on what you put there (like links to your social media), it might be easy for people who stumble upon your card to identify you. verified-links: question: 'How do I get the links in my card verified?' answer: - > In your {/account=account settings} you can connect and disconnect multiple third-party accounts, which lets you use them as a login provider. If on top of that you decide to publish the link to your third-party profile in your card, then that link will be marked with a shield icon ([shield-check]). It will also include a rel="me" tag, so that services like Mastodon can verify it the other way round too. This feature only works with Mastodon and Twitter so far. business: question: 'Are you a business?' answer: - > Nope. We're volunteers. We create the website with our own work. The maintenance costs are covered in part by the {https://arc.io/faq=arc.io plugin}, the rest comes out of our own pockets and {/contact#support=your donations} – for which we're very grateful! ❤️ - > That also means that if you're “boycotting” us because of {/blog/we-are-inclusive=our inclusivity}, you're doing us a favour.
