DopeGhotiWhen offering cordial salutations to one who has elected for "they/them" or other pronouns averant to either masculine or feminine presentation, clearly Sir or Ma'am is not correct. What is a valid stand-in for such honorifics? "Y'all" seems a bit comparably informal but it's all I can come up with off the cuff.<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Pronouns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pronouns</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Honorifics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Honorifics</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Etiquette" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Etiquette</a>

Norobiik @Norobiik@noc.socialManners do matter. --- "Older inmates didn't feel comfortable about young officers fresh out of school calling them by their names without an honorific," he said. The officer is hopeful that the new practice might lead to a decline in troubles between officers and inmates. <a href="https://noc.social/tags/Japan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Japan</a> <a href="https://noc.social/tags/Prisons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Prisons</a><a href="https://noc.social/tags/PrisonOfficers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PrisonOfficers</a> and <a href="https://noc.social/tags/Inmates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Inmates</a> warm up to rule on use of <a href="https://noc.social/tags/honorifics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#honorifics</a> <a href="https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/07/15/japan/crime-legal/inmates-names-honorifics/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2024/07/15/japan/crime-legal/inmates-names-honorifics/</a>

The Lamb's WaifuThis is a fact I was well aware of when I started using it in my Kuudere based Username while also identifying as Fluid. There was an old TheAnimeMan video about how neither the Chan or Kun Hoonorifics are inherently Gendered.I choose it over other Honorifics I could have used because I like alliteration.But to the casual Western Anime fan, Chan seems Girly and Kun seems Boyish. With every well known example of male character being called Chan being one who is less then ideally Masculine in some way.Fortunately I'm now aware of some neat examples of Girls being called Kun.In Detective Conan Professor Agasa usually calls Haibara Ai "AiKun".Recently I was watching scenes from the Visual Novel Shiny Days on a website I won't name and noticed that Youko calls Mai "MaiKun".Neither of those characters are Tomboys or Bifauxnen or Butch or any other of kind of masculine woman. I've referred to Haibara as a Kuudere before, and Mai is the mother of the Kuudere I use for my Avatar. So I feel reasonably vindicated in my decision to associate the Kuudere with the Kun honorific.I also recently discovered that someone on Deviant Art had created a character named KuudereKun years before I independently came up with that for my new Username. But they don't seem to have become super popular so I think the Username is still fair game for me to use.<a href="https://mithrandirolorin.blogspot.com/2024/06/kun-is-not-gendered-honorific.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://mithrandirolorin.blogspot.com/2024/06/kun-is-not-gendered-honorific.html</a><a href="https://c.im/tags/Kuudere" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kuudere</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Anime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Anime</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Honorifics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Honorifics</a>

FaintdreamsMy literal minded-ness has always rubbed people the wrong way but there are some things I won't budge on for anyone.Are you a sibling (or near as) to my Mother or Father?Then you Ain't my Uncle nor My Aunt.Are you the child of my Uncle or Aunt?Then you Ain't my Cousin.This has gotten me uninvited from family gatherings & also kept me out of many sketchy situations.Don't let 'Tradition' batter you into accepting things you feel aren't right<a href="https://dice.camp/tags/ActuallyAutistic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ActuallyAutistic</a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/Culture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Culture</a> <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/Honorifics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Honorifics</a>

Colby MoorbergI encourage my students and academic advisees to pay attention to how their instructors introduce themselves on the first day of class and use honorifics accordingly. I also tell them when in doubt go with the more formal/higher ranking option (Prof. or Dr.). For me personally, I introduce myself to students as "Dr. Moorberg", but am not opposed to "Colby" or "Moorberg. I do get annoyed by "Mr. Moorberg" though. I prefer either formal or informal, and using Mr. just seems like a lazy attempt at formality. I acknowledge I have the luxury of assuming someone using Mr. is likely not because they are trying to dismiss my qualifications, which brings me back to my recommendations above. <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Honorifics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Honorifics</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/HigherEd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HigherEd</a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/PhDChat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PhDChat</a><a href="https://www.kqed.org/science/1926489/should-all-ph-d-s-be-called-doctor-female-academics-say-yes" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.kqed.org/science/1926489/should-all-ph-d-s-be-called-doctor-female-academics-say-yes</a>
