    They’re getting they/them’d if they don’t prefer one of the other two options.

    Some people are men or women or both or neither. Nobody is a goddamn pumpkin. Even actual pumpkins don’t get special articles for indirection. Mere objects are it/its. No “experience of gender” can make you a supernatural entity, or… produce.

    Labels unique to an individual are called names. Pronouns are what go in place of that. We have several. Take your pick.

      Grammar isn’t a tool to constrain thought. Grammar is a tool to assist in writing.

      Gender is a social construct. Gender is made up. People experience gender in different ways. Some people experience gender in ways that cannot be put into words.

      If you can’t tolerate people here using pronouns that challenge your world view, this instance is not for you. We are not interested in conforming to your personal view of gender. We do not tolerate intolerance.
