Hi I was wondering what folk’s here liked most in terms of neopronouns for first, second and third person.
If you don’t know what that means:
-
First are things like I/me
-
Second are things like you and y’all
-
Third are things like they, she and he
Lois McMaster Bujold, writing science fiction in 1986 about a genetically engineered hermaphrodite used it/its for pronouns (when not using she or he)
I remember reading a goodreads answer later that she would have used they/them if it had been in common enough usage that she had encountered it.
(though in my mind '86 is relatively recent, but maybe I’m just old)
Oh, I didn’t know that, thank you!
