(2/2) I'm thinking pronouns that differentiate between sentient beings and objects, but then who defines that line?
So, pronouns. I don't really have any because I don't care - what people call me doesn't change my gender/sex (male). Right now, I prefer 'it/its' because of the impersonality, but as long as the pronoun usage is consistent (no "he walked into the next room and picked up its sandwich") I'm fine.
(1/2) *I'm making many assumptions in this post so I appreciate it if people correct me*
Pronouns, invented to shorten communication, became gendered when society becomes gendered. Do pronouns really change what people are? Why still have gendered pronouns? If you say for writing, then the assumption is the two people are of opposite gender. If we head towards 'it' and 'they,' it might work better....

It is claimed Ernest Hemingway once wrote a six-word short story that could make people cry for a bet. The wager was ten dollars, which Hemingway won with the following: Show more
