Thread Name: BS: Non-gender-related pronoun
Subject: Non-gender-related pronoun
We will be having our first kid in June, and have chosen not to find out its sex. However, it really bugs me that there are no non-gender-related pronouns. We have to either pick a random sex (he, she, him, her) or else refer to our demon-seed as "it".

One would think that in these politically correct times, when we say chairperson instead of chairman, someone would have come up with something.
