Lily Gladstone is opening up about her preferred pronouns.

Lily recently explained how her Native American roots have impacted her views on gender and pronouns.

“I remember being 9 years old and just being a little disheartened, seeing how often a lot of my boy cousins were misgendered because they wore their hair long,” Lily told People.
“It happens to a lot of kids, I think, especially Native boys leaving a community where long hair is celebrated [and then] just kind of getting teased for it, so I remember back then being like, everybody should just be they.”
The Killers of the Flower Moon star continued, “And in most Native languages, most Indigenous languages, Blackfeet included, there are no gendered pronouns. There is no he/she, there’s only they. So Blackfeet, we don’t have gendered pronouns, but our gender is implied in our name. But even that’s not binary,”
Lily concluded that her choice of pronouns “is partly a way of decolonizing gender for myself.”
The star also addressed the topic of gendered categories at awards shows.
“I think it’s really cool that we’re seeing ‘performer’ and we’re seeing everybody brought in together. I do feel that historically having gendered categories has helped from keeping women actors from a lot of erasure because I think historically people just tend to honor male performances more,” she said.
Lily then questioned the purpose of gendered terms in the film industry.
“I know a lot of actresses who are very proud of the word ‘actress’ or are very proud of being an actress,” she said.
