Question

10. Extra Credit: If you are speaking to a person who is non-binary and uses gender-neutral pronouns, which set of pronouns below should you use?

his / him
they/them
her / hers

Answer 1

B. they/them because they are gender neutral and don’t follow him/his or she/her

Answer 2

> they/them

For a non-binary person in the context of the question, ‘they/them’ is the best answer.

This is because the term ‘non-binary’ itself is someone whose gender identity isn’t exclusively male or female. Some non-binary people experience their gender as both male and female, and others experience their gender as neither male nor female.

But, in real life, it would be best to ask the person what their preferred pronouns are.
