I agree - when I read the original source, you do easily read 'him'; it doesn't jar.
But, like you, I always wonder why they do that. I wouldn't. You can easily use 'they', or say something like, presuming this is a man/woman you would check him/her... etc.
But thanks for replying and taking the critique on the chin!
- bookofjoe 6y ago"... say something like, presuming this is a man/woman you would check him/her...": whenever I come across those slashbound pairings I wince, they're just so awkward and mess up my reading flow. You just made my day — thanks! P.S. I must have a very low bar, now that I think about it...
- feralimal 6y agoYou and me, both :) All the best.
