If the University of Tennessee's Pride Center has its way, pronouns such as "he" and "she" will be tossed out this coming semester, replaced with gender-neutral ones such as "ze" and "zir."

In a post to the university's website, Pride Center Director Donna Braquet encouraged instructors to ask students to provide their name and preferred pronoun at the beginning of the semester.

"This ensures you are not singling out transgender or non-binary students. The name a student uses may not be the one on the official roster, and the roster name may not be the same gender as the one the student now uses," she said. "We should not assume someone's gender by their appearance, or by what is listed on a roster or in student information system."

Pretty sure we discussed this last week, but "genderless" identity pronouns are fkn retarded. You are he or she. If you're offended by that then too bad.

The picture that is now not showing up is the same picture of retarded pronouns you put up. How could I have saved it to my phone from tigerdroppings if it had never been posted until now? Unless I am from the future

I could see calling someone an "it" could be a little offensive. Why can we not just say no anymore as a country? No we will not call you ze

This is coming to all universities. My wife has been dealing with a lot of this at a variety of private and public colleges in Georgia and Tennessee. She does a lot of the interior design for colleges which includes signage. A big one they are dealing with is getting rid of the men and women symbol from bathrooms and making bathrooms entirely more gender neutral.

This is coming for all schools.
