She continued to explain: I said, ‘You know, Bird, I’ve been doing a bad job with the pronouns. Because Birdie said that they would like their pronouns to be they/them, and I haven’t been doing it, and I said because I have this public persona and I want Birdie to be in control of their own narrative and not have to answer to anybody outside of our friends and family if they don’t want to.”

I totally accept anyone’s sexual preference/orientation. But I don’t understand the ‘they/them’ label. To me, those words mean more than one. I honestly don’t get it, but would like to. Multiple personalities? I know that’s not it, but it doesn’t make sense. Continued…
