Pronouns??

Hello! Recently I’ve been trying to figure out my pronouns and it’s been kind of tough. I know what I don’t want (he/him) but I’m not so sure about the rest. Any advice or pronoun suggestions? How did you know your pronouns were right for you?

While they aren't for everyone, I picked it/its because of a way of embracing my nonhumanity and because they felt more comfortable to me. With pronouns it's really a matter of trying them on to see what works. The Pronoun Dressing Room is good for that, and I'll also add there's nothing wrong with making your own pronouns or "homebrew pronouns" as I've seen them called. You can also use multiple types of pronouns if you prefer.

You could try getting your friends to use some pronouns on you for a period of time, and see how you like or dislike it after awhile! <3

I tried going by any pronouns or she/he/they for a bit to see which one's I liked and that helped me a bit

 And I also tried making fake scenarios in my head where people would use different pronouns on me and that helped me a lot.

(My pronouns are He/They/It!)

I personally am a she/her turned they/them. I kinda hated the sterotypes that people put me in as a female. because I didn't want to be a girl. because I didn't want to have to fit into that 'girl box'. u can experiment! i was he/they for a while, but it didn't feel quite right. i was lucky to be around people that accepted me, tho. love to all of those people struggling with bullying/any kind of LGBTQIA-phobia (I love u, u are wanted, u are awesome!! :3). SO yeah, u can experiment!!!!!!

PRONOUNS!

Nah but fr, someone above said ask your friends to treat you as this or that set of pronouns, to see what will make you the most comfortable!

I just searched through the ‘normal’ ones and when I found a set I feel good with I just added sum interests as part of my pronouns too (he/they/zombie/alien)

i (afab) started with she/her

then realised i don't rly vibe with that set lol. so i went to she/they/xe/shey/no pronouns

...until i realised again, that i don't even like those pronouns??? (on me)

soooo, finally i figured, she/they feels right and cool :D

(also we don't have gendered pronouns where i live so idk)

He/They and non-binary! I’m AFAB so originally She/Her then a few other things. I went with He/They/Any for a bit then I realized I don’t like She/Her. Remember chose what your comfortable with <3.
