Concerns We’re Heading For ‘Misgendering Crisis’ As 61% Of Brits Never Ask About Pronouns
UNILAD ^ | June 25, 2021 | Emily Brown

Pronouns are often attributed to a person at birth, when newborns can be labelled ‘he/him’ or ‘she/her’ depending on their biological sex. Despite a wealth of progress on the matter, many people still have a habit of assuming a person’s gender and pronouns.

To highlight these issues, Instagram partnered with Mermaids, one of the UK’s leading LGBTQ+ charities, to conduct a study of 2,000 UK adults and find out how many people are open and accepting to acknowledging a person’s pronouns.

Of the 2,000 participants, 61% said they never ask someone their pronouns when meeting for the first time, paving the way for misgendering in the future. In comparison, just 6% said they ask each new person they meet what their pronouns are.

Actually it’s a gendering crisis that even 40% may ask.

Gender twits shouldn’t expect everyone else to work with their mental dysfunction.

Most will reply, “Whatever,” and shrug.

“Actually it’s a gendering crisis that even 40% may ask.”

That is tragic...that ANY FOOL would ask such a ridiculous woke.

Of course, the Brits call their spouses “partner” which is really weird.

Humans have a sex, male and female.

Languages have genders.

Just refer to any of the mentally ill who demand special pronouns as “it.”

If someone walked up to me and asked if I referred to myself as a he/him or a she/her, I would either bust out laughing at them or I would just say WTH?????

Could all y’all here please refer to me with my preferred pronouns? She, him and their. That’s the feminine for the subject, masculine for the objective, and plural for the possessive.

Thanks in advance!

Demanding we all conform to whatever pronouns they make up is a non-starter with me. I work for a large corporation and am seeing this in the HR training sessions we are all required to complete. In one of them just the other day, it mentioned that some people may be fluid, and want different pronouns in different days. SMH. How is anyone supposed to keep track of that? I have a hard enough time remembering names, much less some made up pronoun that changes like the weather.

I’m not one to roll over, so it may get interesting if I run into a situation where this becomes an issue, Rather than engage in their sickness, I will either simply shut up, or, if I’m feeling particularly feisty, make up my own pronouns for myself and demand they comply with me.
