Thanks! Why do you think my friend’s a “he”?
Back in the olden days, "he" was both a masculine and neutral pronoun. Now "he" is only masculine, while "they" is the neutral pronoun despite the fact that it originally only described a -group- of living things of unspecified gender.
Should I tell my friends about this site?
