In this week’s episode, Tuck speaks with Kirby Conrod (they/them), a PhD candidate in linguistics. Among other subjects, Kirby specifically studies the use of they/them pronouns. Topics include:
- Tips for folks who struggle with they/them pronouns.
- Reasons why those folks might be struggling more than other people.
- Being a nonbinary person in academia.
- Coming into a nonbinary identity in Taiwan.
- What is syntax?!?
Read more about our This Week in Gender topic here and here.
Read Kirby’s Medium post: “How to do the absolute minimum (with pronouns)”.
