Delicate and rugged are identifiers for those who might consider describing themselves as feminine or masculine, but don't want to use words so strongly linked with whatever bits someone has. They can also be used as replacements for female and male, if you're looking for a somewhat neutral, but still nuanced gender.
Below is a list of pronouns for those who use delicate or rugged as a gender.
| Types of Pronouns: | subjective | objective | weak | strong | reflexive |
