The way the clothes they wear are flying off the shelves, and Luigi's outstanding photogenic quality, you bet they're a model prisoner.
did luigi come out as NB and i missed it? or why are you misgendering him?
In English "they" is neutral. It's also both singular and plural.
neutral gender is appropriate when the gender is unknown or for NB people. otherwise it is appropriate to use the known gender
It's also perfectly appropriate to say they. It's not gendered
Thanks. I couldn't figure out how to say that without sounding like an asshole. You managed it flawlessly.
I don't know Luigi's gender for certain, nor is it relevant to my statement. Neutrality is appropriate.
Furthermore, I personally disapprove of gendered language in general. It's pointless. I can't think of one reason to keep that archaic tradition.
Wtf are you talking about
