    Completely agreed.

    Pronouns stem from a time when it mattered whether or not a sentence was about a man or a woman. Sentences about men were given a higher status.

    Once we accepted women are equal to men, it really doesn’t matter what the gender is of the person the sentence is about. They are human, that should be enough.

    I’ve been replacing all pronouns with they/them for a while, even in my daily life.
