CW: Vent About Others Using Wrong Pronouns for Us RE: ...

Nothing like bonding with beings, and they send us a genuine message like "thank you", only for it to hurt like hell, because it uses "you" pronoun, which we abhore


Please read our pronouns before addressing us

see that above? It's how we protect ourselves ftom such things. We take great offense when beings don't read it, and still choose to interact

It's the ever lasting hurt that we must always live with. Unless we learn tolk pona, which has a nice accomedation for plurals.

Sometimes, even those who are very close make mistakes referring to us. It uhh, it hurts a lot. On some days we can shrug it off, on others, it's a nail in the coffin


Please read our pronouns before addressing us #plural, #pluralGang, #plurality, #multiplicity

We've also been trying hard to figure out a new way of speaking, that is pronounless. Like, how will we refer to those who are reading this? Well, by using "readers"! Hi readers :D, hope readers can understand and won't be bigoted. It happens that some, uhh, special little sasuages out there, like to:

Gore Metaphor

Twist the knife and continue to use wrong pronouns. Those are, the worst.


If readers can't read that spoiler, then:

Hurt us more by using wrong pronouns

This is a community for those who identify as, or are questioning if they may be, plural. No matter what kind of, or the source of their plurality all are part of the plurality umbrella and are more than welcome here! We also encourage those who are curious about plurality and want to learn more about it, as well as those who are questioning.

What is plurality? - still being written

TLDR for community rules

  1. Follow lemmy.blahaj.zone general rules: no personal attacks, no insults, no doxing etc.
  2. All plural identities are valid; do not dispute the validity of anyone or anymany.
  3. Don’t pressure those who are questioning; let them decide whether they’re plural or not.
  4. We are not therapists or professionals; this community is not a substitute for professional help > (though we understand being careful with 'professionals' as they are often not kind to us plural folks).
  5. Be mindful of what you post here; put trigger warning in the post title for negative and/or triggering contents.
  6. All rules apply regardless of who or what is using an account; as with real life, each member of a plural group is responsible for the entire group.
  7. Do not insist any stop using a term they prefer to refer to themselves.
