What is this paper about? Context: The 2010s have made gender neutrality and sensitivity exceedingly visible in our everyday lives, as social media spreads information fast and internet activism is at its peak. The world is becoming increasingly more accepting towards gender minorities and due to this they have started to become more heard in issues regarding their own rights. One of the groups of people who face substantial oppression are nonbinary people – they exist outside of the gender binary and are still constantly fighting for their place in society. Some nonbinary people still use the binary pronouns he and she, but many prefer to use gender-neutral pronouns, for example singular they (McNabb 2017, 9). In addition to this, they has become more widespread in situations where people are not aware of a person’s gender (Bradley 2020, 5). This is better than using the generic he, for example, which is seemingly gender-neutral because it has been defined so, but still creates the image of a male for the recipient. However, there are also newer gender-neutral pronouns, called neopronouns, “that are increasingly used in place of ’she,’ ’he,’ or ’they’ when referring to a person” (UNC Greensboro, Neopronouns Explained). The purpose of this study is to research how frequent neopronouns ze, xe and zie are in today’s world and where and how they are used. Section 2 provides the theoretical background for the study, and section 3 discusses the materials and methods of the study. Section 4 delves deeper into the data and analyzes it. 1.1 Motivation Language shapes our views and thoughts, and in the case of minorities the wrong kind of language can truly harm others. For example, in a study done by Stonewall and University of 2 Cambridge it was found that “nearly one in four (23 per cent) lesbian, gay and bisexual young people have tried to take their own life at some point” and “more than half (56 per cent) of gay young people deliberately harm themselves, which can include cutting or burning themselves” (2012, 4). For trans youth these numbers are often even higher, as gender minorities are generally more discriminated against. According to The Trevor Project’s National Survey on LGBTQ Youth Mental Health 2020, young trans people who had their pronouns respected by most of the people close to them were half as likely to attempt suicide than those whose pronouns were not respected. Thus, it is not insignificant which words are used when referring to people and more specifically, which pronouns. This study aims to shed more light on the importance of inclusive language and provides an indepth look into the three gender-neutral neopronouns ze, xe and zie. The internet holds a substantial amount of information about neopronouns written mostly by young, nonbinary people themselves, but I was not able to find any previous academic studies considering this specific subject, and therefore this is an important topic to research.
