guess that answers that question.
also he's got a nice page on gender pronouns
https://www.stallman.org/articles/genderless-pronouns.html
he doesn't think xir's and gender degeneracy is bad
he writes a 1400 word article on why people shouldn't use "they"; because it's a plural pro-noun.
autism excerpt
>There are those who claim that we have an obligation to refer to someone using whatever pronouns person might choose. I disagree with that position, on grounds of principle and grounds of practice. I think we should respect other people's gender identification, but which pronouns we use for any particular gender identification is a separate matter --- a matter of grammar. We do not owe it to anyone to change our grammar according to per wishes.
> "Person" etc. are just as gender-neutral as "they" etc., but since they are singular they fit a singular antecedent. Gender neutrality need not imply a sacrifice in English grammatical clarity; it is still possible to have both.
>If someone says, "Please use 'ella', 'la', 'le' and 'su' for me," I will follow that request in Spanish (treating per as female). However, I will refuse to use them in English, because those pronouns are not English. If perse says, "Our pronouns are 'we', 'us', 'our' and 'ours'," referring specifically and only to perself, I will not use them --- I will not say, "We drank too much and crashed the car," if the meaning is that perse alone did so. Likewise if someone asks me to refer to per with the pronouns "he", "her" and "its", or with "hy", "hap", "happy" and "hyne".
