A robot is correcting people who mispronoun Caitlyn Jenner

Caitlyn Jenner

A Twitter bot has been automatically correcting anyone who refers to Caitlyn Jenner as “he”.

“@she_not_he” may not always get it right, but it’s making a valiant effort to make sure no Twitter users use the wrong gender pronoun to refer to Jenner.

The account’s bio states: “I’m a bot politely correcting Twitter users who misgender Caitlyn Jenner. Apologies if I make a mistake reading your tweet!”

Check out some of the bot’s handiwork below:
