> What's the proper pronoun to use today, if you don't know the actual gender of the subject, for example because you talk about a hypothetical situation? I find myself rejecting the whole notion of preferred pronouns as a grammatical error. Pronouns are generalist grammatical objects, and you can’t claim one by yourself, and thus make the object into being a individual object. Also the arguments made here resonate with me: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21901346 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21901346 I’m all against discrimination, but there is no “right” to be called by your preferred pronoun.
