Ok so i learned about a person coming out as non binary recently and this reminded me of my confusion about (i think they're called rolling pronouns) she/they and he/they specifically.
I have looked around at some sites speaking to it but none of them have made it clear to me whether use of "her" or "him" instead of "theirs" in the case of someone who wishes for (s)he/they is misgendering.
I had (mis)understood before that (s)he/they meant they were fine with either their gendered pronoun AND the gender free option, but am i way off base? Is the "they" not an option?
Apologies if this is breaking rules or has been answered, i didn't see anything on the sidebar so here goes nothin...
Ok, thank you for this. I was worried that i was missing something simple that nonetheless was over my head. So it's not necessarily wrong to use (s)he instead of they unless corrected by the person. and it seems I'm not going to get people hurt by using the prophet gender possesive
