IfGodCouldDie 03/19/21 6:34:14 PM #17:	I personally don't care what gender pronouns get used for me, so including mine on introduction just doesn't seem like something I'd care to do. I have no problem respecting someone's wishes to be addressed by any specific pronoun, but also in that regard I tend to use gender neutral anyway. --- Mind post.
