I don’t want to work at a place or do business with you if I don’t fit in.
I will say I am blank, I live in blank, I am married my wife is blank, I have three kids. Heck I don’t care you know my religion, age, sex life, what car I drive. I am cool with sharing everything.
I got a resume today. Was a name I can’t tell what it is, had no home address, had a cell number and throw away gmail.
People hide so much.

Chicuil is traveling next week. Please help chicuil update chicuil’s travel card. Chicuil’s travel card stopped working when chicuil was traveling last month. Please contact Chicuil at chicuil’s mobile phone because Chicuil will not have access to chicuil’s computer until Chicuil arrives at the hotel.
Great solution! Thanks!

Hey I just called that number and Chicuil is not answering.

As PPs said, it’s about making it less awkward for people who have nonobvious ones.
There are also people who are not comfortable changing them yet and feel forced to either out themselves or share pronouns they don’t like.
The way to make people feel supported is to SUPPORT THEM. Make a caring inclusive environment for people. Forced pronoun sharing doesn’t make people more supportive. In fact, it just pisses them off and causes more problems.

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?
In real life, this has zero impact. It’s woke virtue signaling that I will not support.
What is “woke virtue signaling” in your view?
Leadership demanding that everyone share their pronouns so they can feel better about themselves.
Not sure I understand. PPs have explained how this helps people. Why are you opposed?
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?
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.
It’s clear you just have WASP friends/coworker because even sarah is not obviously female to people from other countries.

I will never understand this sort of thing. Many of us don't even use email signature files at work.
Following standards is not a micro-aggression.

It’s important for cisgender people to proactively give their pronouns so that trans people aren’t the only ones giving theirs. If it becomes normalized to share pronouns proactively, then trans people who aren’t totally comfortable telling everyone they’re trans (which is reasonable, given the state of trans rights) will be able to let everyone know their pronouns without having to go out of their way or be singled out.

You do not have to share any GD pronouns. It's your right to privacy.
