Furnace of Doubt: "I would be fine with that email, but I also have a lot of non-binary friends, so I'm not sure how more conservative co-workers would react. Your proposed email sends friendly enough to me. Maybe change "should be used" to "I prefer they be used"?"
Hi, just a note that the wording "I prefer they be used" can be seen as offensive and transphobic. There is no "preference", a person's pronouns are what they are and no one should have to say they have a preference on that matter. A person's pronouns are their pronouns, period.
