#143091 - he or she Responding to: ???'s previous message |

A technical query requires a technical response, no gender qualifications. I agree, but no language I know, including english, has a single word to point to either male or female. And calling people 'it' doesn't quite do it either IMO. So I guess we're stuck with using 'he' or 'she'. And therefor I too vote for an optional gender in the profile. |
