What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
- Adds a simple forum tag that displays a person’s pronouns (e.g., She/Her, He/Him, They/Them, etc.).

Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
- Not to my knowledge.

Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
- Promotes inclusivity within the community.
- Helps people feel more welcomed and respected.

Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
- May require additional development time, as I am unfamiliar with how the website is structured to implement this feature.

Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
- This is a relatively simple addition, and the only major reason to deny it would be if it is not technically feasible. Overall, it would help foster a more inclusive environment, make users feel more welcome, and reduce instances of misgendering by clearly displaying pronouns.
 
I think this would be dependant on if xenforo supports that kind of thing, that is regular users being able to self assign certain tags as I definitely think you could make them in a variety of ways, but I am unaware of how to give without a senior admin. If xenforo does not support it I cannot imagine this being done as we do not really modify forums for a variety of reasons one part being only ventz can really edit it beyond the config panel
Xenforo doesn't even support its own built-in features, this site is shit
