I know braceletbook has a gender part on the profile, but I think it would be useful to have a pronoun section where people can write whatever pronouns they use. i just thought it might be nice so you don’t have to scroll through looking for them and just like other sections you don’t have to fill it out if you don’t want to. also sorry if this has already been suggested. thank you for reading!!!

@Urbestie Hi!! I just wanted to say a lot of people use pronouns, not only gay people. Pronouns are actually really simple too. Examples of pronouns are she/her, they/them, he/they and many more that you might not have even heard of like xe/xem. Pronouns are basically a way of referring to someone without using there name like if I say “they were really nice” instead of “(insert name) was really nice”. I hope this helps and have a great day🌈

@Urbestie It’s what you want to be called. For example most guys wouldn’t like it if someone said “yo she needs help” when referencing them and vice versa. It helps to avoid awkward situations

i agree with this! for anyone who doesn't understand, here's something i pulled from google: "Typically, society has taught us to make automatic assumptions about what pronouns to use for someone. If a person’s gender expression (the way they appear in terms of gender) seems to be male, we’d likely use he/him/his when talking about that person; if a person’s appearance seems to be female, we’d be likely to use she/her/hers. However, gender is not always that simple. Sometimes a person’s gender identity (the way the person identifies internally in terms of their gender) doesn’t align with their gender expression (the way they look). In addition, not everyone identifies strictly as male or female. So when a person includes their gender pronouns on their email signature line (or on a nametag, when introducing themselves, etc.), they are simply taking the guesswork away for you! It’s their way of saying “when you refer to me using pronouns (opposed to by my name), these are the pronouns I’d like for you to use.”" |
