Pronoun Hoarding

Pronoun hoarding, collecting or using multiple pronouns simultaneously or back to back, can be a completely normal and valid part of exploring your gender and identity.

It is okay to take time to figure out which pronouns fit you best. Sometimes having multiple pronouns available can be a way to ensure you always have access to language that makes you feel comfortable and seen. Sometimes it is just about exploring and figuring out what does or doesn't work for you.

Whether pronoun hoarding is a temporary step on your journey or a permanent expression of your identity there is no wrong way to navigate having or using pronouns. Never feel bad for prioritizing your comfort and self-expression. Your experience is yours and no one else's.
