And I’ve called myself a few — a female transvestite, a butch oma, someone who believes in nonbinary trans love like others refer to the Old Testament (something open to interpretation). In the course of researching this book, I’ve been fully guilty of that most perverse, and common, knowledgeseeking pleasure: mesearch. The versions of “me,” however, have been morphing, accumulating under the aegis of changes in name, body shape, clothing style, country, job, and interest groups of all kinds.

If nothing else, then to hush those twittering naysayers who claim that those who fantasize about abolishing the gender system were all a bunch of elitists, or freaks, or elitist freaks; “yeah, like that’ll ever happen,” they snigger. It felt certainly possible to me, if only enough people would use them in languages where gendered pronouns are relevant. But I never actually thought some version of personal pronouns for genderqueer people, namely “they,” would become incorporated into MerriamWebster’s Dictionary only some fifteen years later. A dictionary! The singular use of the pronoun they to refer to someone whose gender is unknown — as in, “Ask your friend if they want to come along” — is an old phenomenon that has lasted continuously since around 1300. The use of they as a nonbinary pronoun, however, is relatively new, which is why it is one of the “words we’re watching” for MerriamWebster and has been included since 2013 in their historicizing catalog of word uses.
