"What are your pronouns?" Best response for a 14 yo?

DD is as well informed as I can manage on pronoun nonsense but we're both stumped for the best response if a friend asks her "what are your pronouns?"

Any advice on challenging/deflecting? With close friends she jokes (she's identified as a Samsung refrigerator, pronouns ice/tray, for a while now) but with people she knows less well it's harder to pull off.

Thank you Smile

'Please use whatever pronouns you feel most appropriate '.
This is the easiest one for a 14 yo, I think.

I am an atheist so don’t do pronouns

My pronouns are me and I. Its rude to talk about people in the second person when they are present, so just use my name. I don't care how you talk about me when I'm not there.

Sex-based like my oppression.

I usually refer to myself as I or me
