I wanted to apologize to anyone who may have mistaken my pronouns in my profile as an intent to mock the use of pronouns.
The intent was always that I am happy to use whatever pronouns a person wishes that they feel best represents respect shown to them. Likewise I asked for pronouns to be used for me that also shows respect. It was intended to be a two way street not a mockery.
I have since added a note to my profile to make it quite clear my pronouns are not intended to mock.
@freemo I simply saw it as an attempt to normalize the practice of indicating preferred pronouns. I've done it myself in different contexts. Some people are just looking to be offended. "Look at you, wearing pants! Don't you realize many people don't have pants?!? How elitist!" - and we ignore that sort of trolling.
