Corrections and Confrontations  Hi, I’m an afab agender junior
in high school using they/them/their pronouns! I started coming
out part-way through sophomore year, and am pretty open about my
gender now but haven’t necessarily up-front told everyone??? Its
just not a thing I hide at all anymore and I reference now and
then. My school is actually super accepting and queer-friendly,
which is amazing, and some of my friends are really good with
pronouns. My mom’s making an effort that I really appreciate,
but she still messes up a lot. Do you have any advice on how to
correct people on pronouns and gender? When it comes to speaking
up for other people I have no trouble, but when people use
she/her/hers pronouns on me or refer to me in very female-
exclusive ways I never know what to say and always just end up
staying silent. I know most of these people mean really well and
when people mess up I don’t think they ever mean it maliciously,
so I don’t want to be confrontational, but it can get pretty
uncomfortable. T
