A study in Britain tells us that Nearly a quarter of Gen Z now identify using a non-gendered pronoun like 'they/them'.
❗ Nearly 1 in 4 (23%) of Gen Z use a non-gendered pronoun such as 'they/them', according to a study by OnePoll.
❗ The survey of 2,036 people found that younger generations are really embracing gender diversity, non-conformity and ‘alternative’ identification.
❗ Nearly half (48%) of those polled aged 18-24 said they now state their pronoun on email signatures and / or social profiles.
