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.
Yep. Seeing this as well in the company. As a counter, I have a Master’s degree and will request to be called Master.
