1. "why should i put my pronouns in my bio?"
trans/non binary people will normally put our pronouns in our bios because we don't want people to misgender us, and having your pronome in your bio even if you are a cisgender person is one of the easiest ways to show that you are an

ally.
if only trans/non binary people do it, is easier to transphobes to come at us, being rude and all those transphobic crap.
but, when everyone does it, you are helping this to become a common practice between everyone and slowly making these kind of attacks stop.

2. "how can i put my pronouns on my bio?"
it is really easy, you just have to write they/them, she/her or he/him on your bio (you can do it in your own language if your 1st language is also not english)! you can use more than one pronoun too, it comes to you to decide!

PLEASE don't put your pronouns in your localization, on your website or with special fonts. i know our profiles look more cute or beautiful with these, but some people use the screen reader due to visual impairments, illiteracy and etcetera.
some of the screen readers doesn't read these kind of stuff, so let's reach everyone, okay?
3. "oh, but my name is clearly masculine/feminine! i don't have to put my pronouns there!"
yes, you have! name DOES NOT define gender or your pronouns. pronouns are the way you feel more comfortable being called. your name is your name!
there is no such thing like this.

now that you know, please do it! it is easy, doesn't take long and will not hurt you.
also, please don't forget that some people may not be out of the closet yet, because someone on the family follows or run their account with them. so, don't come at these person for that! just ask gently their pronouns!
