    For myself? I don't really care. Although I much prefer a person to remove all doubt and just use my name.

    They/them; really I'd prefer masculine, but I only trust one person with that information so it doesn't work yet.

    He, him, his, etc.

    I, however, am not fond of referred to as a man. Essentially every instance when you would refer to me as a man would raise some tension. I am content with being male and have no problem with being referred to as such for the sake of ease, but I am not fond of having my gender or expression assumed and generalized alongside those I share the same sex with. Especially when I act nothing like a "man". (Nor a woman for the record)

    We deign to prefer the royal "we" be used in referring to our royal majesty.:king:


    Haha I don't really care what pronouns people call me, I'm technically male and usually addressed as "he" or "him", but I have been addressed as "ma'am" or "miss" too, and I like that just fine.

    Male for me of course, but only my boyfriend calls me anything close to it, not a lot of people know. The ones who do still see me as female, im starting to not care anymore.

    I normally prefer female pronouns, but every once in a while, I sometimes prefer ve/vir/virself. Female is the majority of the time, however, and it always makes me happy when people on the street call me "Miss" or "Ma'am", though right now, that's not very often.

    Him/His/He. I tend to react...negatively when referred to as "ma'am." Insecurities with the sound of my voice and whatnot.
