In Hollywood people give their personal pronouns when they introduce themselves. No he and she for them. I live in Tennessee. My personal pronouns are Leave me alone and Get the hell out of here.

I'm sticklish on correct pronoun usage. I hate hate hate to see or hear a plural pronoun -- them, they, their, themselves -- used for a single person, e.g., "The other driver wouldn't give their name." People who misuse pronouns thus debauch and uglify the language. Sure, they have a right to do so, just as a person has a right to keep garbage in his yard, or to tramp stamp her body from wrist to ear and put a bone or a bolt through her nose. But it's ugly, and the rest of us have to look at it.

I like to died (look it up!) the first time I read Philippians 2:3 in the KJV (1611): "...let each esteem other better than themselves." Ugh!

They should have stuck with Tyndale (1534) on that one: "...every man esteem other better than himself."

When I was a corporate slave, I always addressed a woman I didn't know as "Mrs. So-and-so". I figured I would be right about 85% of the time. I was almost certainly wrong sometimes, but interestingly, no woman ever corrected me. But that was 15 years ago; I'd probably need to wear some good noise-cancelling earmuffs if I did that today.

What do you know, it's actually in there

www.biblegateway.com/pass...ilippian s%202&version=KJV

....but honestly I think that's the way language has uncontroversially been since then except in rigid or uptight contexts like teachers instructing pupils how to fill in SATs. Feel certain 'than himself', while textbook English, just isn't the default in my spoken and written worlds -- sort of like saying"th'm" for 'them' as in "I put "th'm" on the table. That I cannot abide even tho some of my favorite ppl talk that way -- just a few that (like me) ain't originally from aroundjear.

Southerners used to pronounce 'Mrs.' "miz", at least in my native Va. Ripely ironic that 'Ms' is the gender'ically correct thing now (if it still is). Before it became common and axe-grinding I used to enjoy using it just to be different ;-)

Not being English capable, that seems OK to me.

Why don't you try to fill this HoosierHayseed in as to what it should be.

My pronouns, whatever those are, are still 'sick and tired.'
