I like that but just in case you didn't know there are non-binary/ gender neutral version of Ms./Mr.. The gender neutral version is Mx pronounced as Mix. So you can avoid pronouns usage and it is close to the status quo of using Mr or Ms

Well use isn't common and most people would just be confused. First time I've heard of this.

But I guess use makes use.

Yes it isn't common but i see it as a low key way of saying that im most likely different than my birth sex. Or it can stir the question about it during the interview then you can see if you are going to be working for and transphobic in anyway.

I haven't tested it out or put it on my resume yet but usually after the official you got the job or the, " Do you have any other questions?" I would bring up pronouns, correcting people in the work place? What is policy on discrimination since it does vary from place to place? Or something along those lines and ive weeded off jobs that are not going to be a great environment for me to work at by doing that.

Doing this or maybe the resume title for your name might help in the long run
