    Ms is for anyone, not just widows.

    But Mx is better than any gendered title anyway

          What are you talking about? Everyone is already using *nix every day, they just don’t realize it!

      Why do we even need titles? It’s such an outdated hierarchical notion.

        I have found it’s getting easier and easier to not enter a title. Probably 80% of online forms I fill in these days have title as an optional field.

          I’ve just filled one that has a non-optional. I’ve filled Mx just cause I hate it, regardless of my preferred pronouns.

          In this case I believe the “sir” part of actually just a polite interjection to get attention. While I an unsure of another polite one, options include:

          • Hey
          • Oi
          • Bitch
          • Asshole
          • Mate
          • 1/2 cup sugar
          • Stir well
          • Bake 350 for 25 minutes
          • Cut and serve

      I don’t know how to pronounce Mx, even if I did it would take a lot for me to call someone by Mx. Language can’t be forced.

      Yeah, Ms. (pronounced miz) is supposed to be used when you don’t know if someone is single or married.

      But I agree, the whole thing is outdated and icky and shouldn’t be a thing anymore
