    Lately I've been feeling like I could prefer male pronouns, rather than the female pronouns that match my gender. Is this okay, or will I offend somebody if I choose to use these pronouns?

    If that's what you prefer, then do it. No one should be offended by what you go by.

    Use those male pronouns if they make you happy. :thumbsup: Nobody can tell you what to refer to yourself by, and if it offends them, then they're the ones who are offensive.

    It's all up to you if being referenced as male is what makes you happy and you like it that's all that matters, how you identify yourself shouldn't affect anyone else

    It might offend some, but if its what you want then don't hesitate.

    There is no such thing as male and female pronouns as those are examples of sex and pronouns align with gender. You can use whatever pronouns you wish as your identity is not determined by your body. Everyone might not necessarily approve, but the ones who matter won't mind.

    Your gender and pronouns are valid, and always will be. Don't let anybody tell you different :slight_smile:
