International Pronouns Day

International Pronouns Day, marked every third Wednesday of October, is like that yearly reminder from your grandma to mind your manners – except it’s about pronoun etiquette. Born in 2018, it’s the shield against misgendering, especially for our friends in the transgender and gender nonconforming community. 

But why does it matter? Well, think of it as a masterclass in empathy. Respecting personal pronouns isn’t just a trendy thing; it’s about recognising people for who they are. In a world where we’ve got a gazillion ways to communicate, getting this one right can make all the difference. So, whether you’re fluent in “he,” “she,” “they,” or still working on your pronoun ABCs, International Pronouns Day is your annual nudge to join the conversation and be part of a world where diversity and identity are celebrated, not shrugged off.
