I've literally had someone get upset that I used "they", you can't win with some people.

  You can probably win with that person though. Just not by using "they".

  Perhaps because they is plural. Plural is reserved for the royal family in some cultures.

    'They' is also used when gender is unknown and has been for a long, long time. Person_1: I found this great blogger whose writing I think you'd love. Person_2: Oh, really?! What do they write about?

      Only in English.

        It's an English fucking word.
