I've gotten a few questions about it, so I'd like to do a thread: what does it mean when someone describes themselves with a pronoun mix, like she/they?

the prefix post signifies a need to go beyond the -ism, on the other hand it repeats what it prefixes. neither human nor humanism can be overcomed straightforwardly but posthumanism in a dialectical and theoretical sense engages with the ongoing “deconstruction of” humanism.
