The school requests students do this to stand \u201cin solidarity and support\u201d of transgender and \u201cnonbinary\u201d students.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The email claims that displaying pronouns \u201chelps to ensure that everyone, regardless of their gender identity, will be correctly addressed\u201d in the classroom and online. Straight students must also include their pronouns to avoid \u201cisolating\u201d students who use pronouns such as \u201cthey\u201d or \u201cze.\u201d&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cStudents may be afraid to out themselves if they do not know their environment is supportive. When we all include our pronouns as part of our daily life, it normalizes the action of doing so,\u201d the email reads. \u201cThis five-minute gesture contributes towards a more welcoming and friendly community for all.\u201d&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The email provided students with an instructional guide on how to add their preferred pronouns on social media and other platforms.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Also included was a \u201c<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.learningforjustice.org\/sites\/default\/files\/general\/speak_up_pocket_card_2up.pdf\"><span>Speak Up Pocket Card<\/span><\/a><span>\u201d created by Learning for Justice, the educational arm of the Southern Poverty Law Center. The pocket card calls for students to \u201cinterrupt\u201d behavior they dislike, question and educate an individual who offends them, and \u201cecho\u201d support for people who stand up to \u201coffensive\u201d behavior.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The push for including gender pronouns has become increasingly more common on college campuses. According to<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.campusreform.org\/article?id=10700\"><span>Campus Reform<\/span><\/a><span>, the University of California-Davis puts out an LGBTQIA Resource Center pronoun guide that lists all the gender-neutral pronouns. An updated guide includes the use of pronouns like \u201cyo,\u201d \u201cxie,\u201d \u201cey,\u201d \u201cen,\u201d and \u201cve.\u201d The guide also lists, \u201cco,\u201d \u201che,\u201d \u201cshe,\u201d \u201cthey,\u201d and \u201cze.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The guide provides a conjugation chart that illustrates how each pronoun may be used in the subject, object, possessive, pronoun, and reflexive forms.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The University of Wisconsin-River Falls<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.campusreform.org\/article?id=16636\"><span>website<\/span><\/a> <span>told students that they are oppressing their peers if they fail to use preferred pronouns. \u201cAsking someone their pronouns is like asking someone their name,\u201d the website claims, further stating the failure to use preferred pronouns \u201cis not only disrespectful and hurtful but also oppressive.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The push for pronouns has seeped into the most prestigious medical establishment in America as well. The Mayo Clinic debuted new policies related to gender identity, including a wearable button for employees to display their preferred pronouns.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The Daily Wire<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/mayo-clinic-debuts-woke-policies-including-wearable-pronoun-buttons\"><span>reported<\/span><\/a><span>:&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em><span>[Mayo Clinic] announced Tuesday that it has updated its Dress and Decorum Policy to approve the pronoun buttons, according to a news article on Mayo Clinic\u2019s internal website viewed by The Daily Wire.&nbsp;<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><span>Mayo Clinic also updated its Email Signature Policy for official emails, informing employees that preferred pronouns can now be included in email signatures.&nbsp;<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>The pronoun discussion is also breaking into broader American culture as social justice warriors from college campuses permeate corporate America.
