Male authors of psychology papers were less likely to respond to a request for a copy of their recent work if the requester used they/them pronouns :marseyheavymetal: :marseydude!srock:

I'm not going to actually read the study, but did they control for which pronouns were used? Like did the male authors respond to people with "he/him" pronouns in their email signature, or did they just spurn all pronoun-announcers en masse?
