Actually, almost all of the female professors put their pronouns (always she/her -- basic bitches), and a FEW of the younger male professors still don't put pronouns.
Bears out where I am. I'll be damned if I ever uSe PrOnOuNs. I'll tell ya what's worse in academia is having to hide my powerlevel. Which, that'd be no issue if offices were the way they were as little as a decade back and politics just weren't talked about. It's so god dang one-sided now and depending on where you're at you have to just smile and nod and act like everything's ok when it's not. But tbf, at the end of the day I'm pretty insulated from that sort of thing where I'm at and it's not like I didn't know things would probably be like that when I signed up so eh. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
All I can say is that if you’re in academia and NOT the farthest left progressive ever, you better have FIRE on speed dial. The purity tests are ridiculous.
