Be down with PGP
We use personal gender pronouns (PGP) everyday, often subconsciously. It’s naturally baked into the English language.
A Big F#$%ing Deal
Imagine being called something you don’t identify with over and over and over again. That can weigh you down emotionally, lead to stress, anxiety, and hold you back from being your full self at home and work.
Mistakes Are Ok
If you say the wrong pronoun, don’t freak out. It happens. Just apologize and do better next time. Ask what pronouns people prefer, let yours be known, and be empathetic.
Gender-conforming Pronouns
Let’s be clear: there is nothing wrong with gendered pronouns. It’s just that “he” and “she” come with certain connotations and might limit the way some express their identity.

Gender-Fluid Pronouns
Referring to yourself as “he” at times or “she” at times is totally common. Especially, if someone doesn't identify as a single fixed gender. In which case, maybe (they/them/their) is right for you.

Gender-neutral pronouns
There are many different genders which exist outside of male and female. So, if you choose to not specify or associate any gender with your pronoun at all, here are some common options. The list is constantly evolving, that's why there are so many. But the point is, no one wants to feel boxed in—so they should be free to express their gender identity however they choose.
