Remember Nashville?\">respect individuals&#8217; gender identities<\/a>, the university&#8217;s approach is extreme and potentially dangerous.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Choosing to ignore or disrespect someone\u2019s pronouns is not only an act of oppression but can also be considered an act of violence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The university&#8217;s guidance on pronouns includes a list of unconventional pronouns such as &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-push-for-preferred-pronouns-in-class-may-push-some-professors-off-campus\/\" title=\"The Push For Preferred Pronouns In Class May Push Some Professors Off Campus\">ze\/zir\/zirs<\/a>,&#8221; &#8220;they\/them\/theirs,&#8221; and &#8220;hir\/hirs.&#8221; The document also suggests that students introduce themselves with their own pronouns to create a safe space and avoid assuming someone&#8217;s gender.<\/p>\n<h3>Words Are Not Violence<\/h3>\n<p>While it&#8217;s important to be respectful and use the correct pronouns for individuals, it&#8217;s important to remember that words are not violence. It&#8217;s up to the person who hears them to choose how to react. The university&#8217;s approach is setting a dangerous precedent and could lead to further violence.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s important to remember what happened in Nashville, where a transgender shooter killed three children and three faculty members at a Christian school. The shooter&#8217;s manifesto has not been released to the public, but it&#8217;s likely that they were fed the same extreme beliefs about pronouns and gender identity.<\/p>\n<h3>A Better Approach<\/h3>\n<p>Respecting individuals&#8217; gender identities is important, but it&#8217;s also important to approach the issue in a way that doesn&#8217;t create more harm. Instead of labeling misgendering as an act of violence, we should focus on education and understanding.
