[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, give an example of an exchange where you wouldn't know what to say because you're unsure of the person's gender. Type it like a script. ME: blah blah blah PERSON: blah blah blah ME: We'll wait.[/quote] Not op, but there are many times when it isn't intuitive to say the persons name but is more natural to use a pronoun. Obviously, you would have to catch yourself before using an incorrect pronoun but let's not pretend that it would be easier to just know what pronoun they prefer. [/quote] The OP seems to be asking about speaking to the person directly. There is no need to use him/her in the middle of that conversation. If talking about the person to a third person, the OP can use they/their, or just the person's name. [/quote]
