same with swapping in 'they'! i think most pronouns are singular, only 'they' is plural due to legacy junk, see:

  • what does he want to do?
  • what does drag want to do?
  • what does the cat want to do?
  • what do they want to do?
  • what do the cats want to do?

perhaps we should move towards singular they, eg 'what does they want to do?'

I mean in the instance of directly addressing the person. If you 1 for 1 swap it sounds weird (what do drag), but if you change "do" to "does" it sounds like you're 3rd personing.
