I am getting a new coworker that I will likely need to work closely with, and it’s a “they/them”. Haven’t seen this person or a picture yet, so not sure if it’s a female or male at this point.
What are some tips for dealing with this? Should I just completely ignore the issue and make on as if it isn’t “a thing”, just avoiding the use of pronouns? I want to keep my job, but I don’t want to betray reality and my principles.
This and they use them to force others to comply with their fantasy. You do not use pronouns when speaking about someone present. That is considered rude. It’s an attempt to control your thought when the individual is not around
