Kennesaw State University business Professor David Bray recently changed his faculty signature to include his preferred pronouns — “hilarious/handsome/homosexual.”
He knows they’re adjectives, but said: “Why do pronouns get to have all the fun?”
In fact, his newly edited signature is a way to humorously poke holes in the trend that all people must announce on campus their preferred pronouns on everything from nametags and class rosters to in-person introductions and email signatures.
“To me, it’s kind of like compelled speech,” Bray said. “They are trying to force you to say something you are either uncomfortable saying or not willing to say.”
He changed his official faculty signature about three weeks ago. So far, everybody’s loved it, according to feedback he’s gotten, he said.
“Lots of colleagues wrote to me that they love my adjectives,” he told The College Fix in a telephone interview. “I had a student write to me yesterday and said ‘please use my pronouns, princess and pretty.’ That’s the fun part — people think it’s funny too, even my students.”
The reason he may not have received a negative response is because most professors on campus have come to know Bray over the last two years as an outspoken critic of the diversity, equity and inclusion ideology that permeates his campus and so many others.
Even though the business professor is homosexual and predominantly dates black men, he said that because he has openly questioned the DEI mantra, some have called him racist. But he told The College Fix he has no plans to back down.
“Straight white men, I have your back,” he said.
