    I thought the best practice was using “they/them” if you have no way to know in advance or until you know preferred pronouns. That does depend on one asking or trying to find out someone’s preference however, which most ppl won’t. Here, the preference is right in the email address lol, and if they were uncertain they could always ask

      or until you know preferred pronouns

      Yeah once you know the pronouns and they / them isn't one of them, it's just straight up misgendering. They / them only works if these actually are the pronouns of the person in question, if it's a plural or if you're talking about unspecified / unknown people. In any other situation, it's a no-go and only liberal swine will argue otherwise.
