<p>The University of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/colorado" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Colorado</a> Boulder claims that misgendering someone can be an &#8220;act of violence.&#8221;</p>
<p>CU Boulder&#8217;s &#8220;Pride Office&#8221; <a href="https://campusreform.org/article?id=23354" target="_blank" rel="noopener">argues</a> on the university&#8217;s website that deliberately ignoring someone&#8217;s pronouns can be an oppressive and even violent act.</p>
<p>&#8220;Choosing to ignore or disrespect someone’s pronouns is not only an act of oppression but can also be considered an act of violence,&#8221; reads a <a href="https://www.colorado.edu/cisc/pride-office/lgbtq-resources/pronouns" target="_blank" rel="noopener">page</a> titled &#8220;Pronouns.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;When someone asks you to use their pronouns, they are asking for you to respect their identity,&#8221; the page says. &#8220;It is never safe to assume someone’s gender and living a life where people will naturally assume the correct pronouns for you is a privilege that not everyone experiences.&#8221;</p>
<p>The &#8220;Pronouns&#8221; page says the information was &#8220;created by students, for students.&#8221;</p>
<p>People should introduce themselves with their own pronouns so &#8220;everyone you meet knows that you’re a safe space and that you won’t assume a person’s pronouns,&#8221; the students say on the &#8220;Pronouns&#8221; page.</p>
<p>The students go on to tell readers that if they do not know someone&#8217;s pronouns, they should use &#8220;gender-neutral ones, like they or ze.&#8221; The page also explains how to use new pronouns like &#8220;ze&#8221; and &#8220;hir.&#8221;</p>
<p>Even asking someone their pronouns is not always the right move, the students say, because it&#8217;s better if &#8220;gender non-conforming people come out with their own pronouns on their own terms.&#8221;</p>
<p><b data-stringify-type="bold"><a class="c-link c-link--focus-visible" href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://onelink.to/dwapp" data-sk="tooltip_parent" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-96097">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP</a></b></p>
<p>Using the wrong pronoun, even by accident, leads to &#8220;dysphoria, exclusion and alienation,&#8221; the page says. If someone else uses the wrong pronouns, you should step in and correct them, the students add.</p>
<p>&#8220;The mark of a true ally is never giving up on the people you want to help,&#8221; the students say. &#8220;Plus, gender non-conforming people tend to get tired of always correcting other people, so having a friend to help is amazing.&#8221;</p>
<p>If you do use someone&#8217;s pronoun incorrectly, you should apologize but not &#8220;make it a big deal,&#8221; the students say.</p>
<p>&#8220;As long as you portray that you are sorry and you try harder next time, it’s going to be OK,&#8221; the page says.</p>
<p>&#8220;Knowing a person’s pronouns is not the most important thing in the world but respecting a person is, so try not to demand something of someone when they’re not comfortable giving it,&#8221; the students say.</p>
<p>CU Boulder is a public university that is part of the University of Colorado system, which has four schools in Boulder, Denver, Colorado Springs, and a medical campus in Aurora.</p>
<p>The school has nearly 31,000 undergraduates and <a href="https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/university-of-colorado-boulder-1370" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ranks</a> number 97 on the U.S. News and World Report&#8217;s Best National Universities list.</p>
<p>Over the last year, more universities have been moving to allow students to officially register using their preferred pronouns.</p>
<p>Harvard <a href="https://www.opb.org/article/2022/07/08/more-universities-move-to-include-gender-neutral-pronouns/#:~:text=More%20and%20more%20colleges%20and,the%20change%20official%20this%20year." target="_blank" rel="noopener">made</a> the change last year, allowing students to choose newly-invented pronouns like &#8220;ze&#8221; or even sets of pronouns like both &#8220;he&#8221; and &#8220;they.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/parents-furious-at-north-dakota-school-district-for-suggesting-it-will-buck-law-on-kids-gender-identities" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Thousands</a> of public K-12 schools also have policies allowing minor students to use preferred pronouns in school, in many cases requiring school staff to hide a student&#8217;s gender identity change from parents.</p>
