Pronouns

I pretty much get called 'sir' all the time now, but I don't have a problem with it, and I've noticed that some people just can't get their heads around calling me "Hy" which is my personal preferred pronoun, but, at the end of the day, I don't mind, as long as whatever I'm referred to with or called is respectful and not "Oy lesbian!" ...
(But that's just me and my lack of desire to be called a lesbian, cos I'm not one)
I think pronouns are a very personal thing, and it depends on the culture and/or where you're from, the UK's slowly catching up, and I mean slowly, but I'm still waiting for the day when I don't have to explain GenderQueer in words of three syllables or less
