I dont use neopronouns for myself, but as a non-native english speaker, i struggle with reffering to people with neopronouns because i dont know how to properly use them.
About they/them, i dont feel about it in any way offensive, even though i dont use it personally. For me, it is just a universally neutral way to refer to person, if, for example, i dont know their exact pronouns, and for every person that i reffered this way, they are okay with it, including myself.
As a native english speaker, i avoid using pronouns when referring to people with neopronouns because i don't know how to properly use them.
Its really not through lack of knowledge its lack of exposure. I basically never hear neopronouns used in practice. So I worry I'll get them wrong, in some way I don't understand if I try to use them, as I lack an example to follow. Getting them wrong would be disrespectful, so instead I just try to phrase in a way that avoids needing to use pronouns, which I know for certain is not technically wrong.
I do want to be better than that.
