I just want to say that if having an exchange between two hypothetical people sometimes it makes sense to just arbitrarily say one is he and one is she.


No, it doesn't, "make sense." It's just what you're used to saying. It's your personal prejudice coming through. And that is fine, everyone single person has this. It's not a bad thing Edit - What are we talking about? Let's say you want to talk about how to hit on a girl. Then you've already created two characters, which need genders. If you're talking about all the brave soldiers that have been killed to save our country, then they should be brave soldiers and not brave men

It's only an annoying thing to me because I'm not some 'woke' person that just started to complain about this. I have always been very hyper awake of things like that. In the rules of games, they almost always said his or her and not just player or something. I've always been aware of it. Most people don't even think about it, but it is psychological sexism/bias for all genders, and even as a kid growing up in the 80s and early 90s I never had that. I always found it strange when people would do it
