Ideological origins of resistance against gender-inclusive language reforms: Singular they as a de-gendering or multi-gendering strategy

In this new paper, which was just published in Political Psychology, we show that attitudes and use of gender-inclusive pronouns, such as singular they, is largely determined by individual level ideology. Specifically, we find that RWA predicts negativity towards singular they for nonbinary identities while SDO predicts negativity towards singular they for generic use.
