Discussion Guidelines

Guidelines are a way to structure a group discussion that encourages people to share openly and treat one another with respect.
Discussion Guidelines


A Note on Pronouns

At the beginning of each discussion, we ask everyone to say their name and the pronouns they use. Here are some tips on how to do that in an inclusive way.

  • Ask people to use the format "they/them/theirs," rather than saying "gender neutral" or "masculine pronouns," etc. because the pronouns someone uses don't always line up with their gender identity. Some people might use "they/them/theirs" pronouns, but they identify as female (or any other combination of pronouns and gender identities).

  • Point out that some people don't mind being called by the wrong pronouns, but others do. Often people with marginalized gender identities are misgendered every day, and coming to a safer space might be one of the few places that they can hope to have their pronouns used correctly. Make sure to take people's pronouns seriously if they do.
