> Maybe it would help my understand if you could provide a chart relating the pronouns someone chooses with the pronouns other people are then allowed to use?

I think this is everything wrong with the world currently. Provide you with a chart, so I can justify using gender neutral pronoun?

This is barely more than a year old, is it already outdated? I am an asshole for daring to use “they”?

> If a person uses “she” or “he,” do not use “they” instead. Likewise, if a person uses “they,” do not switch to “he” or “she.” Use the pronouns the person uses.

This matches my own understanding; I have no idea why you are referring to this article as if it supports your bizarre crusade to misgender people.

Which was talking about the mars rover.
