If you mean the gender pronoun to use to those being androgynous, intergendered, ect. It's usually like "sie" instead of he or she. Or "hir" instead of him, his or her. I don't know too much about it..hopefully someone can tell you more

sie and hir seem to be the most common however there are many alternatives. I prefer zie, since it's first letter of my name  ;D

from Wikipedia
"Since at least the 15th century 'they', 'them' and 'their' have been used, in an increasingly more accepted fashion, as singular pronouns. This is called the singular 'they'." I personally like the singular they, however most people look at me like I'm from another planet when I use it. Actually, people often look at me like I'm from another planet :laugh:

Z

There's always "umm...", "hey" and "yo!".  :laugh:

I like using they and their, at least theses are ones people have heard of.

But these days I seem to be happy with her and she.

well, i assume most people are him and her, and am never in a room when people describe me in the third person to be too bothered.

One of my best friends considers emself to be "bi-gendered" and prefers the pronoun ey.
Ey bends like They, you just drop the "th", making it easy to know how it fits in a sentence.

I love em, ey are one of the most intelligent people I know. Eir theories and thoughtprocesses are sometimes enough to break my mind!

Those are the most sensible genderless pronouns I've heard. My tiny brain can connect with them easily.
