Many nonbinary people use more than one form interchangeably

Some like when others alternate between those forms when talking about them.

|
||
omitting pronouns with passive voice, or restructuring the sentence.

quote: >
|
||
Communication is a powerful tool. It is a vehicle for moulding our attitudes, perceptions and behaviour, and
|
||
reflects the world in which we aspire to live and work.
|
||
Words and pictures therefore matter, because communication can become discriminatory if we fail to consider
|
||
the assumptions which influence the language and visuals we use.
|
||
Language is always changing: words evolve and how we use them should evolve in tandem. Using gender-neutral
|
||
and bias-free language is a way of moving away from outdated perceptions about men, women, persons with
|
||
disabilities and other groups of people in society.
