[quote=Anonymous]OP, I have never heard this rule. I'm a woman and I use pronouns always, including the singular "I" when it's accurate. I give credit directly ("Excellent analysis, Jane") and copy or separately inform the person's supervisor if that's appropriate. In my opinion the following are all acceptable: I reviewed the report. I discussed it with Betty, who pointed out x. Jim found a helpful source, y, that you might want to read. We recommend z. We are not ready to clear the report, because I want to discuss it with Anne when she returns next week. My office clears the report. Please copy me/us/person when you email the client. We appreciate your including us in the discussion.[/quote]
