Using personal gender pronouns

“No one set of pronouns fits all. It’s impossible to know what pronoun a person uses without asking them. As speech-language pathologists, we understand the value of pronouns to each individual, as well as how to correctly use them. Using someone’s personal gender pronoun is a vital step toward inclusion.” (March 2020 ASHA Leader)
