this one is actually one of my favorite memes. It’s up there with the “oh youre into pronouns? how about you let me she/them titties” Mario voice acted one

    Transfem enby here - the way it works for me (can’t speak for anyone else) is essentially as two valid options. Some of my friends alternate, some stick with one, but if you’re going to pick just one then those are the correct options. Can’t guarantee it’ll be the same for others with multiple valid pronouns but most will be happy to explain if you ask. Personally I list them from most to least preferred but they’re both right so as long as it’s one of those I don’t care that much

      I do the same. I guess it’d make more sense to write she/her/they/them but that’s long and everybody recognizes that the single slash represents pronouns so more looks weird.

        she/her/they/them

        Just want to say, seeing this can be helpful and encouraging to people who are questioning and scared of saying or doing the wrong things. At least it was for me. There was a particular person I was following on social media that described herself as a ‘transfem enby’, who was probably the most instrumental in making me come to terms with myself, who listed all four of these pronouns. And seeing all of those pronouns made me think, “Oh, so the rules aren’t so black and white and this isn’t actually so scary and intimidating after all. I am valid in how I feel, even if I’m actually fine with any pronouns.”

        Of course, I’ve now seen ‘any’ listed as pronouns many times but when you’re not in these circles yet, you’re ignorant and go by what you see in media representation etc. Concepts that seem obvious to me now would’ve been beyond me before.
