Wait one pronoun? But cis people are typically he/him or she/her each of those groups have 2. Strictly following that rule only people allowed should be "any" or "gender fluid" right?

I get this is horrible and hateful but I would totally go nuclear strict compliance. The person most likely meant "you can only ask to be referred to by one set of pronouns" but he said "one pronoun".

"I made a picture for my mother and she liked it".. Banned she and it are both pronouns. "He taught me that feature" banned he and that are pronouns. "we are reviewing this bug report" banned we and this are pronouns.

MJ approves. As an ex analyst I would choose it/it.

Mom said from now onwards is my time with the pronoun.

Even better... One pronoun for the entire subreddit. Go back to the initial launch of the subreddit, find the first pronoun, ban everyother post which uses any pronouns for anything...

Sorry for multiple posts my app must of been messing up.

Also I always found pronouns funny. Not tranphobic or anything but the literal word pronoun. We have pronouns and proper nouns, imagine if that was true for other words. "yes you're a pro-doctor but I'm a proper doctor" or in a interview "yeah I'm programmer, soon I'm planning to take the test and become a propergrammer!"

Actually I'm upgrading my resume and putting my job title as "propergrammer"!
