You can add your preferred pronouns by going to your Account. Under account settings, you will find a new field that says “Pronouns”. There you can add up to four pronouns. You can define yourself as you think it suits you the better. After adding, you can choose who can see that. You can allow everyone to see it or you can limit your pronouns to your followers only.
