I will be emailing the appropriate departments advising them that gender ideology is still a hot political topic; its decision to allow men to use women's changing rooms made me so uncomfortable that I will not shop for clothes in their stores any more, but its decision to push a political stance with which I fundamentally disagree means I won't be using them at all from now on.

So sad, because I love their trousers and their Christmas party foods.

The trouble with pronoun badges, with “preferred pronouns” generally, is that going along with it is an active statement in support of a partisan ideology. And it involves those who read the badge/email/name on a zoom account etc in that ideology

and it normalises it for children who see the badges too. It’s time to say no to extremists who teach children 'pick their gender'. Let kids be kids. Let human beings be human beings. Displaying pronouns is declaring a belief in gender ideologythat all human beings have a gender identity. It’s not a neutral act. It’s not about trans people, it’s about an ideology. people, especially children, shouldn’t be forced or shamed or encouraged to say that they do.

And I thought this was going to be about Microsoft, How wrong I was...

I always thought the abbreviation 'M&S' denoted Marks and Sparks, but what do I know? Clearly. other posters weren't confused

Was this not about Marks and Spencer @Innofensive?

Some of the earlier posts really confused me. But of course it was about M&S. not the MS I confused them with. Silly me!

Anyone got the CEO's contact details?
