Echo (they/she)

To be gendered correctly without immense effort on my part. I know it’s trivial af for cis people, but it steers most of my decision making and how I interact with people. I wish I could just exist and be seen correctly like most everyone else.

I’m pan but I’m also an enby trans lesbian, does this help or hurt my payout?

You are correct in that “Mx” is most often pronounced as “mix”. It isn’t a direct abbreviation like “Mr” is to “Mister”, but rather derived as a neutral variant to those types of honorifics, so don’t over think it. This is the wild world of the English language after all

Yes chef!

Oftentimes I just leave out honorifics when I am unsure of the gender or preferred terms of the person I am speaking with. If I know for a fact that they are non-binary then “Mx” can work, though not everyone is fond of it and I would hate to offend. Honestly I usually just substitute it in ways such as the below (though i speak pretty casually in general).

What can I do for you friend?

Sure thing love

Have a nice day hun
