When I put my pronouns in my bio, it was because it makes some other people more comfortable interacting with me and goes a small way toward normalizing the practice, which will help those who are often misgendered.

I don't know why people like Peter get so angry about this. https://twitter.com/peterboghossian/status/1249911539156414465
Pronouns harm nobody, cost nothing, and make some people more comfortable. From a moral reasoning perspective, it doesn't seem complex.

Of course, I'm not a hack who owns libs by engaging in ethically questionable research without IRB approval, so my perspective might differ.
It never ceases to amaze me that people get angry about things that literally cost them nothing. https://twitter.com/eleonorasfalcon/status/1250169842294050816?s=20
