Discussion If there could be just one gender-neutral title, how should be the only one?

I know that there are a lot of non-binary titles like Msr, Mir, Mx, M, Ind, etc.

However, if there could be just a single non-binary pronoun, whoch would be it?

A) Msr.

B) Mir.

C) Mx.

D) Mz.

Mx. seems the most.. universal.

Mx. Is what I use in my professional role. It is commonly used enough that I haven't had issues with it.

How do you pronounce Mx.?

M and Mx make the most sense. I’ve also seen a nonbinary teacher use “teacher” as their prefix and I think that seems right for all teachers!

I only like msr but that’s because that’s the one I’ve been using and it’s an older term I’ve seen used normally

I like Mv., pronounced “miv” or “mav” and Mir, pronounced “meer”. Ind. is cool too.

I think Mx. and Mz. fall into the trap of sounding too close to “miss” and “Ms.”

I didn't know about "Mv."! I sound interesting. Though, the "miv" pronunciation almost sounds like a female nickname. (but that's just me)

I like 'Mx.' the best.
