WE'RE FACING A MISGENDERING CRISIS!
61% of Britons admit they never bother asking about someone's preferred vanity/schizophrenia pronouns.
Though conversations about identity are becoming increasingly common, new research shows there is still a lack of understanding around pronouns, highlighting the impact of getting them wrong.
Pronouns are often attributed to a person at birth, when newborns can be labelled ‘he/him’ or ‘she/her’ depending on their biological sex. Despite a wealth of progress on the matter, many people still have a habit of assuming a person’s gender and pronouns.
To highlight these issues, Instagram partnered with Mermaids, one of the UK’s leading LGBTQ+ charities, to conduct a study of 2,000 UK adults and find out how many people are open and accepting to acknowledging a person’s pronouns.
