what is the unholy hell is Mx, and how are you supposed to pronounce it?

Gender-neutral title. Most commonly I think it's like "Mix".

I like to believe gender neutral words come from people mumbling a combination of the gendered ones and hoping that the listener assumes its whichever one relates to them.

Just people with anxiety creating new grammar one nervous encounter at a time.
