SkyRunner Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 (edited) Since I've noticed that a lot of people seem to get confused about gender-neutral pronouns, I figured that a crash course in gender-neutral pronouns was in order. As we all learn in Citae Arc d'Astrae, Adrienn uses xe, xyr and xem pronouns in place of masculine or feminine pronouns. Xe, xyr and xem are gender-neutral alternatives to he/she, his/her and him/her, respectively. There are alternatives for himself/herself and his/hers in xemself/xyrself and xyrs as well, but these noun forms are less commonly used. It's as simple as that. If you have trouble remembering which pronouns work where, then you should substitute in the respective binary pronouns to check if what you're saying makes sense. Substituting in masculine pronouns instead of feminine pronouns might be a better idea as there's no overlap. Edit: missing an 'about'. Edited July 19, 2015 by SkyRunner Quote
DashingStorm Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 As created by Explosms a few days ago; there's an alternative to Lord/Duchess to be known as "Lex". Kurotsune approved. Quote
