Is there a title (Mr/Ms/Mrs) that is gender neutral?

I'm back on my BS 🤪@lemmy.world to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 117 points –

Let's say there's someone I want to call Mr/Ms/Mrs [Name], but I don't know their gender, is there a title I can use that doesn't assume their gender?

That's what we did in Sweden in the 60s. It feels so archaic whenever I have to enter an honorific on documents (i.e when booking hotels and flights) from other countries.

Sometimes they allow for you to write in other stuff. I put in "His majesty" once, it printed out as "His Firstname Lastname" in my hotel reservation paper. Disappointed.

I also put in "Emperor" for some mailing list stuff. I get a chuckle when I get mails from them. "Emperor RaivoKulli, sign up now for the conference"
