Ok. I get for what he, she or they stand for. I like to use they. Are pronouns like xey or others (i can't even remember them all) associated with a certain gender? are they just gender neutral? Do you use them? and if yes why? Please answer I am hre to educate mysef.... I am sorry if my post doesn't look like it.
In English we can make new nouns and verbs all the time, but it's pretty difficult to add pronouns. I don't think deliberately invented pronouns will ever take hold, but 'they' could.
They are a personal choice usually associated with people who don't fit the gender binary (male or female). I will use them if someone tells me it's what they prefer but by default I'll use 'they'.
I really can't take pronouns besides he, she, and they seriously... If they ask me to use something other than that, I'll default to they; you can't go wrong with it. I think those other pronouns are something that GQs and NBs tend to gravitate towards.
To be honest I can't remember them either. I also can't take some of those pronouns seriously like the "Bun" pronouns. So usually if I don't know, I'll just stick with "they". But maybe a GQ or NB would know more about it.
They are gender neutral, though pronouns are all up to own preferences. Personally I'm not used to those pronouns and prefer they.
If I'm around someone and I don't know their gender, I'll try and use "they" or something that won't make me look like a rude idiot. That being said, I doubt thinks like "xey" will ever catch on. It'd be nice for some people, but it would be such a hassle. People would have to learn them. Then people would have to remember them. Then people would have to actually care enough to use them (and we all know that could be a struggle.)
I normally used He, She or They. I do know a lot of people who use different pronouns. Ze Zea Zem, Hum Hum Hums, Per Per Pers, and so on. I know that some people who use non-binary want poeple to use their choosen pronouns, and that is fine. However, if there is not a perferance I perfer to use they pronouns.
