A preferred pronoun is a third-person pronoun by which an individual wishes to be referred to in order to indicate their gender identity. For example: my name is Thi Nguyen and my preferred pronouns are "she/her/hers" because I identify as female, but some other people may prefer gender-neutral pronouns, such as they/them/theirs or name only.
