SAN FRANCISCO: Instagram on Wednesday began letting English-language users enhance profiles to show new gender pronouns they want applied to them in conversation. The photo-centric social network became the lasted internet service to broaden beyond basic “he” or “she” references to pronouns preferred by those with alternate gender identities.
“Add pronouns to your profile,” Instagram said in a tweet.
“The new field is available in a few countries, with plans for more.”
Instagram users can opt to have pronoun choices shown publicly, or just to friends at the service, according to a demonstration of the option by AFP in the United States.
