    Here’s something I’ve not seen before. How did male pronouns become the default in English?

    Apparently it was a woman’s idea.

    Huh. That’s really interesting, Ron. Personally I just use “they”. It sounds and looks fine on the page, avoids the awkward and jarring and neologisms, and now I find it has the hoary weight of tradition behind it.
