Title: Sign of the times
Post by: KathyLauren on May 05, 2016, 02:59:54 PM
I was in a coffee shop today.  The sign at the counter said, "Your barista's name is Angela.  Please use she/her pronouns."  The name and the "she/her" part were interchangeable, so this is presumably something that they use for all their staff.  Cool.

Stuff like this helps me to break out of a prison that I've been in for 30 years. Yeah, everyone's not going to be on board with people like me being a woman, but the fact that *some* people are makes it all worth it.

Thanks for sharing that. It was a great positive thing to see.

Warmly,

Would be nice to see elsewhere.
