Heads up, foone uses they/them pronouns.
I love their write ups, I know whenever I see their posts on here to cozy up with a coffee because it's about to get fun.
- optimiz3 5y ago> they/them Is this to suggest a multiple personality disorder or belief in being a collective hive mind?
- germ 5y agoNo, it's a common way that non-binary people choose to be referred to that avoids gendered language. Although foone borg collective would be amazing.
- optimiz3 5y agoShould be a different non-plural word, straight up confusing seeing it in writing.
- germ 5y agoA little, you get used to it fairly quickly. Maybe I'm a bit jaded, both of my partners are non-binary and it's been natural for too long :P
- hacker_newz 5y ago'They' isn't always plural.
- Ensorceled 5y agoSo you are saying they should use a different pronoun? Because you find "they" confusing?
- fknorangesite 5y agoI can only assume you are as equally confused by the word "you", since it too can be either singular or plural.
