He / Him / His

He, him, and his are masculine personal pronouns used by many men, transgender men, and some non-binary people.

He, him, and his are the masculine set of personal pronouns in English. They are used by many men, including transgender men, and by some non-binary people, either on their own or alongside other pronouns. Using a person's correct pronouns is a basic act of respect and a simple way to affirm who they are. In welcoming spaces it is common to share your own pronouns and to ask rather than assume, since you cannot always tell someone's pronouns by looking at them. Getting them right matters, and correcting yourself quickly when you slip is the kind and easy thing to do.
