‘they’ is a great pronoun bc it doesn’t exclude anyone. if you want to avoid misgendering people on the internet, i strongly recommend treating ‘they’ as the neutral default pronoun in conversations w/ people whose pronouns you don’t know.
‘They’ doesn’t exclude men, women, and nonbinary folks–which is really really important given how often the last two groups get excluded & dismissed from internet conversations. above all, please please please stop treating ‘he’ as the default pronoun–i get that constantly despite having my pronouns listed in my bio, and it is tiring.
please just normalize referring to unknown people on the internet as ‘they’
