Synopsis
Tiptree Honor List Magazine
Issue #9 of Capricious Magazine, The Gender Diverse Pronouns Issue, is collection of delightful, thought-provoking stories that fulfill the intended purpose of normalizing diverse pronouns as well as suggesting that the binary can be broken or even left behind. Buchanan writes: "In English, the personal pronouns we're most used to are he and she. Not only do these require the speaker to know the gender of the person they're talking about, but they only properly cover two genders. Humans don't always fit in these boxes."
This collection addresses the complaint that people find it hard to learn new pronoun sets. Buchanan writes that the answer is to normalize new pronouns -- "in conversation, yes, but also in our stories, in fiction, in all media. In stories about spaceships and about magic, heroism and exploration, families and home." As an added bonus, the authors and editor make recommendations for other works to read.
