Like trigger warnings and gender-neutral bathrooms, pronouns are sparking a national debate, prompting new policies in schools, workplaces, even prisons, about what pronouns to use. Colleges ask students to declare their pronouns along with their majors; corporate conferences print name tags with space to add pronouns; email signatures sport pronouns along with names and titles. Far more than a by-product of the culture wars, gender-neutral pronouns are, however, nothing new. Pioneering linguist Dennis Baron puts them in historical context, noting that Shakespeare used singular-they; women invoked the generic use of he to assert the right to vote (while those opposed to women’s rights invoked the same word to assert that he did not include she); and people have been coining new gender pronouns, not just hir and zie, for centuries. Based on Baron’s own empirical research, What’s Your Pronoun? chronicles the story of the role pronouns have played—and continue to play—in establishing both our rights and our identities. It is an essential work in understanding how twenty-first-century culture has evolved.

Thank you for this title, Synchoresis. I downloaded your previous torrent, though. What was wrong with it? Do I really need to replace the files?

I want my own adjectives, free of every disparaging nuance. And you lot had better give them to me.

“It is an essential work in understanding how twenty-first-century culture has evolved.”
I think the word is “devolved”.

@Litote You should start a anti-book club. If YOU think something is “devolved” it’s probably worth checking out. I’m definitely going to check this book out. Thanks for the recommendation.

@jakestar: You have further validated my observation being the degenerate that you are.

@Litote Thank you, that means a lot to me.

@jakestar: You can thank me by seeking therapy and not mutilating your genitals.

If they are offended by giving them the dignity of referring to them by their proper pronoun, perhaps “it” would be more in order.
