Reddit FlairShare: A Dataset of Gender-Aware Online Discourse
Listed in SWISSUbase
This is a large-scale dataset capturing Reddit comments with pronoun declarations in the respective user flairs, offering a new resource for studying linguistic identity, gender expression, and digital discourse.
Description
Totaling 3.2 million comments with a total length of 72 million tokens, it contains all comments by pronoun-declaring users to present a broader view of their language use than previous corpora that selected isolated utterances.
The comments are anonymized and potentially identifying information in the comments masked. The dataset enables research across multiple domains, including (online) sociolinguistics, natural language processing (NLP), and other social sciences. It facilitates the study of pronoun-sharing behavior, the distribution and adoption of non-binary pronouns, and the use of mixed pronouns in online discourse.

Future work can expand the dataset to capture more rare pronoun declarations; nevertheless, it provides a highly curated, valuable foundation for the study of online gender expression and discourse, innovative language, and identity performance in digital spaces.
