[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter has a friend like this. Switches pronouns constantly. I try to be respectful, but  it is hard to keep up.

And I also feel weird with they as a singular. I’m not going to correct people or go on and on about it, but it doesn’t feel natural at all.

I’m quite liberal, and I’m fine with whatever pronoun someone wants, just don’t get upset if others forget or struggle to keep up. For most of us, it isn’t about disrespecting you or hating on you-it’s just a lot to remember especially if you change back and forth.[/quote]

A teenager being performative and dramatic? Never heard of such a thing…[/quote]

I wasn’t trying to make it about the friend-just saying the switching pronouns is confusing.

Friend has some serious mental health issues, so there is a lot going on there-has been in in patient facilities for weeks several times.

I mostly feel for the family trying to get through this difficult, confusing time. My kid is difficult in other ways, but pronouns and gender are not part of them.
