      Actually you'll see that if you check out our pronoun policy bulletin list there's some cool sources linked about the historical existence of neo pronouns in numerous different precolonial societies that you might find interesting

      Edit: for anyone actually interested in the historical uses of neopronouns and different genders outside of the false dichotomy of male and female this essay from the anarchist library is a pretty interesting read https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/vikky-storm-the-gender-accelerationist-manifesto though it might also help to read up about the concepts of base and superstructure first here: https://en.prolewiki.org/wiki/Base_and_superstructure

          you're aware people had gender before anyone ever said the words she or her, right? I'm rolling at the idea that pronouns define gender. you troglodyte - pronouns arise as a compromise between society and the individual. they're cultural while gender is something that belongs entirely to the individual.

          how on earth do cis people live like this
