Caller Says Remembering Pronouns Is TOO HARD? | Luxander & Dr. Ben

Original Episode Here: https://youtube.com/live/s6Hd55Zl-js

Caller Sam struggles with using they/them pronouns for a coworker who "presents as female," arguing it's too hard to remember pronouns that don't match appearance. Hosts Ben and Lux point out he's already misgendered people based on appearance, successfully learned countless names and updated married names, and uses different honorifics without complaint. Lux shares personal experience being misgendered and how simple the correction process actually is. Sam questions why someone would use they/them pronouns if they're cisgender, revealing his underlying assumption that pronoun preferences need to be justified. The hosts explain it's about basic respect and minimal effort—like the social adjustments Sam already makes daily. By the end, Sam seems more open to viewing pronouns as just another piece of information about a person, similar to their name.
