Also, don’t assume that someone’s pronouns are fixed. The only way to know what someone’s pronouns are is to ask. Gender presentation isn’t the same as gender identity, and neither presentation nor identity are a indicator of what pronouns someone uses. Don’t assume- You can’t tell a person’s gender identity or pronouns based on how they look.The only way to not get flustered using non-binary pronouns is to practice, practice, practice! Using them is as natural to me as binary pronouns, but that didn’t happen overnight. Practice- A rainbow of gender-neutral pronouns have been part of my regular spoken and written vocabulary for sixteen years.Forget what you think you know about grammar, and make an effort to respect our identities by using non-binary pronouns. Effort - The only way to get better at using non-binary pronouns is to step outside of your comfort zones.Make asking pronouns as natural as asking what someone’s name is when you meet. Ask - Ask everyone their pronouns, not just the person you think might be trans or non-binary.
