Pronoun sharing
As new discourses and practices around pronouns become more visible in the public sphere, it becomes crucial for research to attend to the complex way these practices are enacted and upheld across different spaces. Practices of pronoun inclusion may be the first place where many cis people are put in a position to grapple with trans inclusion and face their cissexim, while also potentially entrenching harmful white-centric, neoliberal norms of gender and language. My work on pronoun sharing adds important linguistic insight to these dynamics.
