Let’s say there’s someone I want to call Mr/Ms/Mrs [Name], but I don’t know their gender, is there a title I can use that doesn’t assume their gender?

Doctor, Professor.
I was about to say this. Downside is you have to get a PhD first…
And that isn’t even enough, I’ve had my PhD since 2015 and only my colleagues might address me as “doctor”. I’ve since quit caring.
It makes it even worse that people clearly have no problem addressing Dr. Pepper by their proper title. You’re Dr. Root_beer in my book.
Not for professor. I taught with just a bachelor’s.
There are diploma mills that will give one out for cheap…
Senator also fun
I would love people to start addressing me as Professor despite not holding a PHD.
It’s Strange
We can call everyone “Colonel”, a la Col. Sanders.
