There's a phrase "all things to all men", he/she just decided to swap out men with women to achieve more gender equality.
He could've just said all people tho.
(EDIT: to the replies, I'm not saying it has been achieved, just that this was the probable intention, which wasn't obvious to me as a non-native speaker)
- jmpt 8y agoYea, "all things to all people" is really hard to type. Also "he decided?" You have no idea if the OP is a he. You are part of the problem that the OP is fighting poorly.
- FeteCommuniste 8y agoI hear "all things to all people" much more often and in general I find it's pretty rare to hear "men" used as a general term for people anymore.
