Neopronouns

Neopronouns are a set of gender-neutral or non-traditional pronouns used to refer to individuals whose gender identity doesn't fit typical male or female categories or who prefer different pronouns. Examples include "they/them," "ze/hir," and "xe/xem." These pronouns help people express themselves authentically and promote inclusivity. Usage involves replacing names or older pronouns to acknowledge and respect diverse identities. While some are widely accepted, others may be new or less familiar. Respecting a person's chosen neopronouns is an important aspect of affirming their identity and fostering respectful communication.
