So, I came across this hilarious article about a star from the show ‘Yellowjackets’ who actually withdrew her own Emmy nomination because of her pronouns. Can you believe it? It’s nuts! Anyways, let me break it down for you.
Basically, this actor, Adrienne C. Moore, goes by the pronouns “they/them.” So when the Emmy nominations were announced, she found out that she was nominated using the pronoun “she/her.” She took the matter into her own hands and withdrew her own nomination, citing her desire to be recognized only under her correct pronouns.
Now, I personally think this is a little extreme. I mean, I understand the importance of pronoun usage and respect for people’s gender identity, but to withdraw your own nomination from such a prestigious award show seems a bit extra. However, it does highlight the importance of using the correct pronouns for people and the impact it can have on their sense of self and identity.
Overall, I found this article to be quite entertaining and intriguing. It’s interesting to see how modern society is changing and evolving to accommodate the needs and desires of different individuals. Plus, it’s always amusing to see the ridiculous lengths some people will go to in order to uphold their beliefs and principles.
