In talks with our trans comrades who advocated for this feature, they asked us not to let people make a joke out of it. We will be introducing flairs sometime soon, but please either use the pronoun tags seriously, or don't specify.
Edit: Not to single you out or anything. We all come from a state of ignorance, and we learn about the world and its complexity through experience. This was just a specific example someone mentioned that bothered her.
Maybe consider adding 'comrade' but only if used in combination with something else.
Maybe add 'other pronouns' too (literally that, not a custom tag), since some people do use 'xe/xim' or spivak type pronouns seriously, but it is hard to control in terms of joke tags.
