This is just something I was thinking about while browsing the flist, and I realized that I know about most, but not nearly all of you. So for future reference, please tell me:

Poll

For those who are as "awake" as I am right now: This is about how you want people to refer to you, not about the sound of them or anything. Just in case that wasn't clear

According to my linguistics prof there will never be an official third gender neutral pronoun in English :( :( :( Sigh. I kinda feel dumb now, for always using she/her, but I'll make sure to remember you prefer ze/hir.

Yeah, I'm afraid your prof might be right. :( Binary gender is so deeply ingrained in our Western culture, it would take way more than the few genderfucked people to change that.

Also, don't feel dumb! I never officially announced it or anything, and like I told Chi above, I don't care so much if someone uses female pronouns when I know they are aware of my gender issues and use it as a word, and not as a box to put me in. Know what I mean?

Ooh, I've been meaning to make a poll like this for a while now. Thanks for the reminder! heh.

I'll do my best to used ze/hir! :D
