The contentious topics procedure applies to this article. This article relates to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them.

Editors who repeatedly or seriously fail to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process may be blocked or restricted by an administrator.

This article should adhere to the gender identity guideline because it contains material about one or more non-binary people. Precedence should be given to self-designation as reported in the most up-to-date reliable sources, anywhere in article space, even when it does not match what is most common in reliable sources. Any person whose gender might be questioned should be referred to by the pronouns, possessive adjectives, and gendered nouns (for example "man/woman", "waiter/waitress", "chairman/chairwoman") that reflect that person's latest expressed gender self-identification. Many, but not all, non-binary people go by singular they pronouns, which are acceptable for use in articles. This applies in references to any phase of that person's life, unless the subject has indicated a preference otherwise. Former, pre-transition names of living persons may only be included if the person was notable while using the name; outside of the main biographical article, such names should only appear once, in a footnote or parentheses.

If material violating this guideline is repeatedly inserted, or if there are other related issues, please report the issue to the LGBTQ+ WikiProject, or, in the case of living people, to the BLP noticeboard.

Pronouns

Latest comment: 1 year ago4 comments2 people in discussion

As I've noted in edit summaries, I'm pretty convinced that Man's Instagram lists she/her due to the account getting compromised at some point and Man not noticing. Man's youtube channel description uses he/him, and this evening I pulled up Man's tiktok account which lists Man's pronouns as they/them, which leaves us with 3 conflicting sets of pronouns with no clear answer on which ones Man currently prefers(as far as I've been able to find).

I'm inclined at this point to send Man a direct message on either Instagram or tiktok to get us clarity on the matter, as I haven't found an instance of Man addressing this confusion when asked in comments on Insta. That said, DMs wont provide anything that can be cited as a source unless Man adjusts pronouns across accounts to be consistent, so I feel like I'm at a brick wall. Looking to get thoughts or guidance on doing this from any other editors who monitor this page.

Additionally, once I'm back at my computer tomorrow, I'm going to go back and change pronouns in the article to they/them and cite tiktok for the time being, which seems safer and more sensible for describing a transmasc person than she/her considering the discrepancy across acounts.

Wow it was difficult writing this while avoiding using any gendered pronouns. Taffer 😊💬_(she/they) 03:28, 12 March 2025 (UTC)Reply

It appears that tiktok only displays an account's pronouns when viewing it in the app, which I'm certain won't fly for a citation, so back to square one on that front I suppose. Taffer 😊💬_(she/they) 03:59, 12 March 2025 (UTC)Reply

Just wanted to add that this article written by Man uses she/her pronouns - not sure if it was Man who added the pronouns but thought I'd point it out https://time.com/7273059/chella-man-choosing-trans-joy-essay/ 87.115.30.121 (talk) 16:52, 31 March 2025 (UTC)Reply

Interesting. Since that's the only article on time that's written by Man, that does suggest that she/her might be preferred. Taffer 😊💬_(she/they) 13:33, 1 April 2025 (UTC)Reply
