Created an account just to say thank you for putting all the work into putting this together. Wouldn't have found this without the outrage posts on Reddit lol.

Can you provide screenshots of this "outrage posts on Reddit", please?

[Jordy]

Yes we like to laugh at everyone trooning out about this mod.

While phishing for the password AND asking for help...
These people don't pass the basic human decency check. What else would you expect from a ****** though.

I noticed this only now. There is something inhuman about thit reddit dialect, like they speak not human to human but abstract to abstract. This scary and disgusting at the same time.

Scary thing is zoomers are already using them as a replacement for he/ she when they don't know what someone's gender is. Even if they're based. They weren't taught "he/she"

I'm a Zoomer and I use "he" if I don't know what the gender of somebody is.

If someone has female avatar I say she. But as a rule of thumb, everyone on the internet is a man.

I find it even more scary if they are using they/them for a person they clearly know the gender of. "My partner,, they....".

I was taught in the elementary school that "they/them" in English is used when you don't know the person's gender you're talking about (not when you see said person) or when you don't want to disclose it (for privacy reasons).

. I was taught that "They" is plural and only to be used when referring to multiple people.

[rusty_shackleford]

"They" is used when the person is definite but the gender is indefinite, 'he' is used when both are indefinite.
I think. Or maybe it's the other way around. I'd have to go check tbh. There's definitely a case where 'they' is traditionally used as singular.

@WhiteShark which is the correct usage? I was never a big (human language) grammar nerd.

"They" can be used in some dialects, not as a singular per se, but when describing a semantically plural class with an indefinite grammatical singular, like "the reader". This is the only historically acceptable usage.

Other than the royal we, i personally never heard of these plural pronouns being used to refer to a single individual before the woke crowd.

Traditionally, grammatically singular they was only used in cases where the subject was semantically plural:

...and each one grammatically singular was an head of the house of their semantically plural fathers among the thousands of Israel.

Recently, it came to be used in cases of a singular, definite person of unknown sex; more recently still, it is becoming common to see it in reference to a singular, definite person of known sex.

How recent is this?

[Stack of Turtles]

How recent is this?

I don't personally know of any attestation before the late 1800s and those are explicitly ideological ("it's sexist to say 'he' if it might be a girl!").

Not sure. On that point, I'm mainly comparing between my own experience and not-so-recent English. It's hard to research this topic because all you get is an endless tide of politicized articles claiming singular they has always been standard.

In the 14th edition (1993) of The Chicago Manual of Style, the University of Chicago Press explicitly recommended using singular they and their, noting a "revival" of this usage and citing "its venerable use by such writers as Addison, Austen, Chesterfield, Fielding, Ruskin, Scott, and Shakespeare."

That's the earliest example of official endorsement from a style guide of singular they given in the article. I think it's fair to assume that it's the oldest endorsement, for if there were any earlier, the activists would surely have listed them.

quick search suggests it was informal, therefore I get to call yous all a bunch of theys because I'm a hillbilly

I'm pleased to say I've figured out how to change ALL of ser Aylin's SFX. So there will be no more girly screams. Will release it with upcoming patch.

Only reasons I ever use they for a singular person is when I can't see the person (such as in a car), or when a video game main character could be male or female. It's just a lot easier to say than "he/she"

We should start a trend where we replace "they" with "it" since that is the true gender-neutral pronoun!

[rusty_shackleford]

The 'true gender-neutral pronoun' is just 'he'. ******* confusing grammatical gender with human gender is the result of some sicko who forced children to rape each other and took pictures. Go look up John Money.

Don't remind me bro... He's the one that made transgenderism a concept people liked as well as saying gender and sex aren't the same thing
