The Facebook-owned social media platform is rolling out changes to its bio section, adding a pronoun field.
As is increasingly becoming the case, social media users are stating their preferred pronouns in their profile. This is for a number of reasons, with ease of communication and show of solidarity and inclusivity chief among them. Instagram has announced in a tweet that it will be officially introducing an entry field in its bio section to allow users to share their preferred pronoun, with the new option currently “available in a few countries, with plans for more”.
