Comment on Do PhDs HAVE to use Dr?
adespoton@lemmy.ca 3 weeks agoGenerally, getting certifications/memberships gives you more options for honorifics, not fewer; you get to use any that are appropriate.
And for instance, if someone has a PhD and an MDiv, they can go by Reverend, Doctor, Reverend Doctor or Mx, and they’re all appropriate; it all depends on context and what you’re trying to communicate.
So Doctor Drag (he/him) is appropriate, as is Mx Drag, PhD.

Thank you, although it felt very uncomfortable for drag to read he/him pronouns for dragself. Drag transitioned to get away from he/him, the example in the post body is just an example of some imaginary doctor. Drag’s pronouns are drag/dragself, and drag’s name is not drag. Drag’s name is Dragon “Rider”.
