Adding pronoun information to chat

For people who are trans and/or non-binary, letting streamers know your pronouns in chat so that your gendered correctly can either be awkward or difficult. An option for people to add their pronouns in brackets beside their usernames or in their profile cards in chat might help to let the streamer and/or chat know if a user feels it's important.

    I was really impressed to see the attention to Safety and Acceptance at the cons and am shocked this is still not some sort of feature w.r.t. Twitch.

    In the meanwhile, there's Alejo's extension, but native support would be excellent.

    very sad that this has been around since 2019 and still hasnt been implemented :(( definitely needed as a feature

    Native pronoun functionality is especially useful because with random gamertag names, it's hard to just guess someone's pronouns. By default I end up referring to everyone as he/him. It could be next to their names or it can be tied to the reply feature, where it will show their pronouns as you type your reply.

    Native pronoun support in chat, it’s impossible to know how to refer to other chatters

    100% agree with your opinion there should be an option set pronoun next to the user name so there would be no confusion to call anyone i have faced this issue with my https://drduany.org/ clients so it would be very easy to call anyone according to their gender.

    This would be perfect! I’ve been struggling with setting up an extension that’s supposed to do this as well! Having it as an option from twitch would be wonderful!

    There should be an option to set pronouns and set them next to user names to avoid any confusion.
  • malikamustang commented  ·   ·  Report

    This would be great! Normalizing pronouns is super important.
  • LizzKitt3h commented  ·   ·  Report

    Agreed! It would be nice to just have pronouns as a dropdown field you can specify and then have that show up when you click on names in chat
  • PVMovies commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is an amazing concept! It would look so clean as well.
