More places asking me to state my prounouns. WWYD?

I would say I don't know I've never really thought about it so just use what you think is appropriate, or some of the other non confrontational ways listed up thread. I agree that pronouns are for the person talking not who you talk to. So when I am speaking I use I, me, mine.
If you have a PhD you could say called me Dr! Actually that is a title not a pronoun.

I put me, my, mine on my slack profile at work, no one has said anything yet. Slack is quite lighthearted so I thought I'd start there.

We have also recently been strongly encouraged to do this. So now virtually everyone has (he, his) or (she, hers) after their names.

"I don't have a preference" and I'll bet you they default to the obvious sex-based pronouns, even though apparently there's literally no way to know someone's sex or gender unless you ask them

It really pisses me off though, as it would probably be assumed because of my age (early 50s) that I'm just old fashioned and out of date, when in fact I'm bisexual (identified as just a lesbian for a decade) and presented as a boy myself for a few years. It's tempting to add I have a "trans" history just to confound them.

For women, having to state pronouns usually means Miss, Ms or Miss. A man's marital status remains unknown.

So I think no pronouns are necessary, unless you want to declare this.

Zoom calls: "My name is Tyro, and I won't be indicating my gender identity by specifying pronouns because this requirement is contrary to the Yogyakarta Principles."

Your thing run by a transman, a quiet conversation explaining the above will probably do the trick - you don't need to mention women's rights or stereotype threat or any of it because you've got the YP backing you up.

Where Empress quoted me upthread (ta, btw) I was quoting someone else who was quoting the YP and so I'm not sure precisely which bit of the YP that was. If anyone fancies digging, we could then all opt for "Pronouns: Yogyakarta Section 4 Part 17(iii)" or whatever it happens to be.

I am just WAITING to be asked my pronouns! Can't wait to tell people that I have no gender identity (I just AM a woman). I have been crossing out "gender" on forms and replacing with "sex". Including one for a new job I'm starting! Husband thought it was a bit risky, but would they really not hire me for that?

"My pronouns match my sex, which to be honest I feel uncomfortable about having to state at the beginning of a meeting."

I haven't been asked for this but will decline if asked.

I think it is very difficult because of your professional position. You may want to just go along with it, although you shouldn't. My reply (easier position!) would be "I don't provide pronouns as highlighting my sex increases unconscious gender bias". Any objections can be met with "I'm sure no one would do it deliberately- it's unconscious!"

OP I do understand the balance you’re trying to reach. I didn’t mean to suggest you weren’t standing up to the compelled speech.
I guess my point is if we collectively politely opposite gender ideology in small ways, just like you are doing, if there are consequences the people doxxing etc look like loons.

I understand the nervousness. My business twitter account was targeted because I’d liked (from the wrong account) some of Sharron Davies’ tweet on the subject of TW in women’s sport. It’s scary but I always think of the consequences for our daughters if we don’t stand up.

I would just say my name is 'insert name here' and leave it at that if anyone pressed I'd say, please just use my name to communicate with or about me.

It's easy to do without ever using any pronouns at all.

• Hi Jane, can you do xxxx
• Everyone this is Jane, Jane's going to heading up this project.
• Jane is the person who sits at the corner desk, dresses very smartly, long blonde hair, works in Johns team.
• John can you make sure you loop Jane in on all communications about project work please

Soz cross post - that was to beautiful

Yes you are correct, and that is what makes this whole spectacle a self aggrandising piece of nonsense. However the op is seeking a non confrontational response and I understand why.

I really don't understand the need for this, how often do you actually in a work meeting/email type scenario say she/her? If someone is referring to you or asking for your contribution they use your name.

It's making a point of being woke unnecessarily.

Bold/quote fail there sorry

e.g. 'Do you mean you never use pronouns?' etc. I think you need an answer that is sufficient in itself.

e.g. 'I prefer to use the pronouns for my biological sex, which is...'

But nobody uses sex-based pronouns to talk about themselves. We say I, me, mine. I've never referred to myself as "she" or "her"

My pronouns are I/me/my. What other people call me is down to them, I can't police others' language. Thank crikey I've never really come across this madness yet.

Just realised I've said basically what JKRisaqueen said further up the thread!

Why not say, "My name is Crabby, I don't feel entitled to compel anyone else's speech but I do promise not to take offence at whatever pronouns people use when they refer to me."

That is clear, modest and friendly with a hint of 'more reasonable than thou' which shouldn't attract attack, though you never know. It's what I'd do! You should be unassailable and you get to keep your principles.

The only reason the ‘need’ to know is that some people have now decided that are a he/she/they/xi... so that means that everyone had to play the game.

Stuff that for a game of soldiers.
