Now I need to declare pronouns to get my rubbish collected!

[nothingcomestonothing]

I need to get rid of a dismantled shed, so went onto my local councils website, where you can book a bulky waste collection for £30. Online booking form, first question, what is you title? Second question, what are your pronouns?

Now bear in mind that the system is, you put the stuff outside your house, and while you're at work a bin lorry collects it. The council employees aren't even going to meet me, let alone talk to me, much less refer to me by a sodding pronoun!

Since the question was not optional, instead of choosing a pronoun I wrote a mini essay about how very, very much they did not need my or anyone's pronouns.

I'm so sick of this shit, every time I think the tide might be turning some bollocks like this turns up.

My pronouns are her/majesty

@PearlClutch

If you misgender someone you don't know in the street at 6am when they're not even there...

Isn't this the very definition of literal violence?

🙄

My pronouns.... tits/womb

If I get this question I’m definitely going to put tosspot/wanker in future.

All of your suggested pronouns are better than anything I thought of at the time!

It was South Cambridgeshire.

Thingy/worsit/doodah

I'm thinking:

hips/tits/lips/power

I have wondered about this too.

@AlisonDonut thank you, first big laugh of today

I've just had this exact experience! The only required information was name, date of birth and pronouns - totally bizarre. I've managed to avoid all this so far and was completely flummoxed, so I've filled my and my daughter's pronouns each as I/me - though now I'm wishing I'd taken the essay option

This is genius, @Tomnooktoldmeto
I will be adopting it when my workplace inevitably asks!
