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?
“Hey cunt” works for anybody. But your mileage may vary depending on your location.
Should that not be properly, “Oi, cunt!” ?
Depends on what you’re going for, I guess. I’m just an American who doesn’t like most people.

I vote that we change it to Mmm.
That will make all honorific communications sultry and interesting.

Mx. seems the most commonly used for gender neutral. It’s used both by non-binary people and in cases where you purposefully don’t want to put a gender as a prefix.
Mx (pronounced “mix”) is getting more common

This is exactly my approach, except I usually use Cap’n.
Mx is common-ish among nonbinary people. Here’s a relevant poll regarding people’s usages of it: https://www.gendercensus.com/results/2023-mx/
Wow, I didn’t expect those results. Pretty impressive. Thanks for sharing!
I work on websites and have carried out extensive user testing to get the right non-binary honorific, and it ended up being Mx.
Implemented it on every site I’ve worked on now.
Comrade
I vote stop using honorifics entirely
