I haven't heard it but I've seen plenty of email signatures.

Our fricking VP of HR uses pronouns on her email signature. Thankfully, my last day is next Tuesday.

've heard it happen in Zoom meetings.

I have yet to have someone question why I wasn't listing my pronouns. Those that work with me know it probably won't end well for them if they do.

The first time was in an email signature of an LSU Department Chair.

I've seen it in email tags. I just ignore it and make a mental note to not talk to them anymore.

I’d think I’d ask if they were a narcissist or just someone who had multiple personalities

I work with charities almost exclusively. You see it a lot on "non profit" organization emails.

I registered for a race and the sign up company asked my pronouns. I'm at a loss to know how this could even possibly be used in a race. Maybe if you win and they announce your name and then use a pronoun? Absurd.

What is sad is I have seen high school students using this in their zoom class name.

And they are not trans students.

I am learning Spanish as we plan to move elsewhere for retirement. Wish the left could eliminate gendered nouns and other parts of speech in other languages. Went through this with French many years ago in HS. Did not think we would have to go through it again.

We are moving, in part to get away from the crazy drama going on right now. Guess learning gendered nouns is a small price to pay.
