I legit had a guy in the office refer to me as “they” in an email, and made the point that it was because they were “unsure of my pronouns” because it wasn’t in my email signature
Did you email back a sarky response?I legit had a guy in the office refer to me as “they” in an email, and made the point that it was because they were “unsure of my pronouns” because it wasn’t in my email signature
Unfortunately I’m not quite brave enoughDid you email back a sarky response?
but my feminine name, long hair, my short height and the fact that I constantly wear skirts should make it pretty clear what my sex is What a weird guy. Just abandoning all common sense now. What if being referred to as they was offensive to you? It’s like calling you ‘it’. Bizarre.I legit had a guy in the office refer to me as “they” in an email, and made the point that it was because they were “unsure of my pronouns” because it wasn’t in my email signature
I bet he struggles to get a date if he can't tellUnfortunately I’m not quite brave enough
I always make a point of saying, ‘Who’s she, the cat’s mother?’ to my children. I feel about 100 saying it but I want them to get into the habit of saying someone’s name if that person is present, NOT use (made up) pronouns. GC sneakiness 
Heaven forfend he just use your nameI legit had a guy in the office refer to me as “they” in an email, and made the point that it was because they were “unsure of my pronouns” because it wasn’t in my email signature
. Tosser.
Women can spot a TiM a mile away so, if I were in their company I would automatically refer to them by name so I wasn't rude to them. The whole pronoun thing is bollocks.
I'm not public sector, but I scanned that list yesterday holding my breath in case my employer was on there (it does have form). Thank duck it wasn't- although maybe this will just make them try harder next time.
Explain to them that your pronouns change every day but you've been nervous about communicating this as some might be invalidating.
I was catching up on Clarice last night, first time I saw the character, I knew. Nothing was said until the sob story. If I can see, mate, everyone can see. At least they had made an effort mind you. But it was obvious to me. I wish they would stop trying to tell us no one knows, we bloody do know! We have been 'kind' up to now, but you are taking the piss. Gave you an inch and you took the whole world from us, duck off. Not being kind anymore.
My timeline was hysterical, in the proper sense of the word. I told my brother (one of the few people I can talk to about this stuff) that they genuinely don't THINK about what they're endorsing. I say that as someone who used to be that way! I had no idea what was actually involved in gender-affirming care for children, just thought that supporting them meant saving their lives. But man, once you know....
I brought this up on the whats annoyed you today thread. Forgetting there are people out there who are happy for kids to be given puberty blockers and get surgery. Honestly does shock me that people, actual sane adults, would support that. How can pre pubescent kids know they’re in ‘the wrong body’? When there body hasn’t developed yet?? Make it make sense.My timeline was hysterical, in the proper sense of the word.

How on earth did he cope with this distress of being unsure, say, a year or two ago, before the Age of the Pronouns befell us?Unfortunately I’m not quite brave enough
Did it trouble him?
Does he need to do an apology blog for retrospective offence or some such?
