I can consider her a man and still call her a she just like my manly hands are “LAS manos” in Spanish.Anyway, if I were forced to put “my pronouns” in my signature block, I’d put “it/it/its”. That’s the singular neutral in English. I’m not going to concede on “they” when I still lament the loss of the number distinction in the second person, and it was for a similarly silly reason. Number is far more useful than gender. |
