Gender Pronouns

[hazelwindows.livejournal.com]

I had been searching off and on for quite some time for a non-gendered 3rd person pronoun that wasnt "it." I needed this for describing a certain aspect of self as well as when referring to some spiritual/reality states and guides.
Today, I came across "she'he" [pron: sheh'HEE] thanks to another who was speaking of a transvestite in this way.


Come to think of it, her/him statements would probably have to be something like "her'him" as well...


She looked out at the scene.
She'he looked out at the scene. perfect.


It was not all the same to him.
It was not all the same to ...she'him? ...her'im? ...her'he? unclear.


I was wondering, does anyone else have a way of describing the gender-free, the multi-gendered, and the other-gendered?

Interesting conversation. After having read everything I find that I rather like 'ot', maybe because it really seems neutral to me and doesn't sound anything like the common gender pronouns. As far as whether it could be used for both he/she and him/her... Of course I'm just babbling to myself here at the computer in a whimsical mood. In actual practice I do the 'they/their' thing.

I had no idea about any of these forms of gender neutral pronouns in use already. I learned much from posting about this, though my feeling of wanting a spiritually-referenced ungendered 'he' that implies sentience beyond 'it' is still not fully resolved. I think mixing the pronouns the way they are in "she'he" does reflect mixed or alternate sex rather than the absence of gender. Though, it also suggests to me the possibility of a state beyond mere singular gender-biased experience which I like. I guess I dont want a genderless pronoun. That implies the absence of the experience of gender. What I am looking for is a pronoun that implies having transcended beyond the limitations of a single-gendered perspective.
