- yholio 7y agoImagine trying to create a pronouns dopdown into some employer form. You either fix the list, and inevitably be accused of lack of gender sensitivity when a new pronoun starts to be used; or leave it free form, and run the risk of some candidates entering "their magnificence, Klingon commander" as their preferred pronoun.

- objectivetruth 7y agoWhat exactly is the risk in the second case? That people can choose how to identify themselves? If prospective employees are filling out the form, that's up to them to take it seriously or not.
