[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am queer and will never “proactively” share my pronouns.  I’m a woman.  It’s obvious.  This is such virtue signaling bs I can’t even.  This makes me so mad.  [/quote]
Why doesn’t it make you mad? The point is to do one small thing that can help make other people’s lives easier. Is it really that difficult to edit your email signature?[/quote]
In real life, this has zero impact.  It’s woke virtue signaling that I will not support.[/quote]
What is “woke virtue signaling” in your view?[/quote]

Leadership demanding that everyone share their pronouns so they can feel better about themselves.[/quote]
Not sure I understand. PPs have explained how this helps people. Why are you opposed?[/quote]

Because the people who write things like this assume to know what helps people.

I’m Jewish and I don’t expect people to write #fightantisemitism on their signature so I know they don’t hate me before they know my religion. I choose to just respect people and use the pronouns they prefer. I don’t feel I need to share mine. My name is an obvious female name.

Obvious to whom?[/quote]

Not the PP but I'm assuming it's obvious to anyone who still chooses to use common sense.

I will support and use proper terminology for anyone who chooses to include that in the email or in conversation. I'm not against it at all.

I will not be forced into this virtue-signaling BS for myself. I am a woman, no one is confused about that. They do not need me to announce it intentionally in emails or verbally. Why would someone named Sarah who obviously is a woman, dresses like one, and sounds like one need to include she/her/hers??

It's stupid and pointless. But again, ask me to refer to you as anything you wish and I'll respect that and do it gladly.[/quote]

Thanks.

It’s been obvious to all people I’ve met in 43 years on the planet and in every country I’ve visited, but I guess if someone incorrectly thought it was male I’d not be much offended.[/quote]
