Smith on their gender-neutral pronouns: "everyone messes up"

Smith acknowledged it can be difficult for people to refer to them by the correct pronouns, because society's established such a gendered language. "What's hard is everyone changing their vocabulary," Smith said. "It takes time. Everyone messes up. I'm going to be misgendered to the day I die."

The singer shared with Zane Lowe why being open about their identity is worth it to them despite this struggle. While they said it's going to take "a long, long time"

"This is all about feeling safe, and it makes me feel happy and it makes me feel comfortable,” Smith revealed. "And if I get to live a life where I’m a little bit more comfortable and happy, then I think it’s worth it".
