Don't worry, German is being ruined in a similar way. You could argue that it's even worse because male persons are excluded outright. Example: male plural form of 'student' = 'Studenten' (was used as generic, neutral term for both genders in the past); female plural form of 'student' = 'Studentinnen'. New way to address all students regardless of gender: 'StudentInnen' [sic]. Same goes for almost every other job/occupation description.WeblionX wrote:Using "their" in place of "him" isn't fixing sexism, it's breaking the language. The masculine form has become generic. Use "it" or deal with it.
