| For more info on singular "they," sex-indefinite "he," and the sex-indefinite singular third-person English pronoun in general, see my paper on the subject: http://www.mspaintporn.com/theypaper.htm I apologize for the shittiness of said paper; I had to write it in about three hours, so I never got a chance to revise. Also, sorry about the bulky ass Word HTML. Laziness is a virtue. | |
