As a person who learned English as a 2nd language, I would like it if you could transform the language into gender neutral and end this insanity.
I still get classic genders wrong, this whole LGBTQ movement is confusing me even more when I'm trying to type/speak.
Honestly biggest reason I list they/them is just because I don't think we should gender language in general. Any pronouns are fine, as long as you aren't trying to be dehumanizing with it. I use they/them a lot when referring to other people and most people don't care, but a few cissies thought a hissy fit over singular they.
