Why don't you use "It"? This is neutral.
-
I believe there is still time to take this down
-
The pronoun “It” is gender neutral.
-
Beginning of the end….
-
I love how these people are capable of rewriting history so they can justify the stupidity they believe.

TF IS THAT THING

Did you know? It is a feature of literary style in Arabic that a person may refer to himself by the pronoun nahnu, ‘We’, for respect or glorification.

World is ending 🙈

God, this is a stretch, going back centuries to justify their madness. If language hasn’t evolved so we use “they” naturally to talk about one person, it’s never going to, so forget it, Onslow.

As someone who uses all pronouns, yes, even IT, the comment section is truly strange TwT
-
Indeed there is a neutral pronoun. That's "it".
-
Ted talk is at it too now ? 🤦🏻♂️

They always find minutia’s in history or simply alter history to fit their narrative, it’s part of the process.

Two birds on stage trying to force a weird change in common sense English.
-
What about WTF!!!
-
it's actually REALLY EASY! All YOU do, is "allow" other "free" people define their reality the SAME way you've been allowed to do your whole life! 😂
-
No one cares.
-
Well done. Now lets get back to reality and stop pandering to this nonsense.

Sorry in school I was taught they/them are plural pronouns. Until someone can explain a legitimate reason for a single entity to be called a plural pronoun.I choose to use the persons proper name and no pronouns to describe them. Maybe try inventing a new one.

I mean, look at the state of it. Its only path in life for any kind of validation was this, getting us to change to cater to its self-absorption.
