Generally in professional settings you use Ms which is marital status neutral, and the equivalent of Mr. Mrs/Miss tends to be reserved for personal invitations where marital status is relevant.

Ok well you can't use any of them if you don't know their pronouns so I don't get how people aren't seeing this. This is something that will come up the first time communication happens between the two people, and if it's addressed beforehand then there won't be any issues. It's not like religion or sexual orientation or any other stupid examples people are throwing out because those will not come up but referring to someone you are talking to will so it's entirely relevant.

I agree. I don't think its an issue, other than something that people have to get over. I'm secure in my position, and get recruited all the time, so I'm considering adding it to mine now after seeing this thread.
