I Bet You Didn’t Celebrate International Pronouns Days You Hatey Hateful Hater

ATTENTION EVERYONE: Please gather around so we can celebrate the dumbest day ever together: International Pronouns Day. It was actually a few days ago, but that’s no reason to stop the celebration!

Today is International Pronouns Day! International Pronouns Day acknowledges that referring to people by the pronouns they determine for themselves is basic human dignity. We’d love to hear what you’re doing to celebrate! https://t.co/DESF619mXy #pronounsday pic.twitter.com/QMQ4R4iWmO

As you can see, we’re now devoting an entire day to recognize the “right” of people to make up pronouns and get p*ssed at people who don’t use them.

ZIR XE WOMYN.

Am I doing this right?

1/ Happy International Pronouns Day!

She/Her/Hers.

He/Him/His.

“For many people the affirming moment when someone uses your correct name and pronoun… can be a transforming moment of support and affirmation.”

Today is the first-ever International #PronounsDay and our staff are celebrating.

Using language that empowers everyone is a critical step towards trans and nonbinary people being able to live authentically and participate fully and in all aspects of our society.

We try our best to live our values. Asking individuals what pronouns they use for themselves ensures we have the language we need to be affirming to everyone present, are not making assumptions about someone’s gender, and respect the diversity of gender identities. #PronounsDay pic.twitter.com/F9qS1svuI5

Sharing pronouns is not a burden that should be isolated to trans and nonbinary people — we should ALL work to stop making assumptions about someone’s gender and create spaces that are affirming to everyone. #PronounsDay pic.twitter.com/n9RnNWl3JU

Sorry– I’m old school. I believe your pronouns should match your junk. That obviously makes me a hatey hateful bigot. Oh well!
