Hey, you.
Yes, you!
Put your pronouns in your bio!
Yes, even if you’re cis.
Help normalize pronoun sharing and protect trans people from unwanted identification!
Thanks, you

If you prefer to remain un- or ambiguously gendered on the internet, say so! Better to state your intentions than leave them up to interpretation.

i’ve heard a lot of different takes on it from trans people! but i’m increasingly hearing that it’s good and valuable, so i’m glad to do it
-
Where have you ever heard from a trans person that stating your pronouns is a bad thing...?
-
for instance, there was recently some drama on my tl about whether it was misleading! i didn’t buy into that argument, but i’ve def seen different views on the subject. still, it feels like there’s more consensus now, from my perspective, which is really helpful.

My concern with doing this is that when cis people do that, it's usually an enormous red flag that they are a TERF or a giant transphobe. Like, every time I've seen a bio where someone mentioned their pronouns but were cis, they were grossly transphobic.
-
Oh dang, now I'm conscious about it. Should I take out the "he/him" I just put in my bio? Also, like another person said, I didn't do it either because I'm a cis male, and therefore don't face the discrimination transgendered people do.
-
Honestly? Maybe not for you. You didn't explicitly mention being cis in your bio, which helps. Also you're displaying friend codes for your 3DS/Switch which also helps. Its a well known fact transphobes hate anything fun.

I always felt like this was co-opting somehow. Always felt like it was overstepping my boundries as a cis person and as someone who hasn't dealt with misgendering. The normalization point is a good one though.

I'm wary of any practice by a group of people of creating unnecessary labels for other people. Cis isn't a bad sounding word, in fact it has a futuristic feeling to it. But it's not needed at all. There is a word called 'heterosexual' right? Btw what's the "it" form of bro?

-
Heterosexual has nothing to do with being cis. Like at all. There are gay cis people and straight trans people
-
Cis is just the opposite adjective to trans. That's all it is

Comes from latin

I think the only reason I hadn't done it because I didn't want to look like I was being all, "hey, this looks edgy. I'll do my pref. pronouns and be cool." I hadn't thought about the protective aspect of it. Changing profile now.
