Free up precious space in your bio while still expressing yourself.
(Photo via Instagram) Instagram now lets users add preferred pronouns to their profile. Rolling out first in Australia, Canada, the UK, and the US, the feature makes it easy to tell the world (or just your followers) how best to refer to you. Simply visit Edit Profile and look for the empty Pronouns box. Choose up to four words like she, her, he, him, they, them, which will appear in faded text next to your name. Previously, the only places available for listing preferred pronouns was as part of the profile name or in the bio section. “Instagram has always been a place where users can express and be themselves—and with this latest feature, Instagram is excited to normalize pronoun usage while promoting a more thoughtful community,” a company spokesperson said in an emailed statement.
