    What do you mean they?

    He clearly says he’s a singular person

      They is, and has been for a very long time, perfectly valid for singular use.

      Most people I’ve encounted do it all the time without noticing between sentences.

        It’s extremely confusing. Its a he, no doubt

      Where you you see a gender qualifier in the post? If you don’t know you don’t assume because you turn into a donkey or something like that.

        A gender what?

        How is there a doubt that it’s a he.

          I doubt. What tells you it’s a he… that’s what I’m asking you to do. Show me, prove me it’s a he.

      In english, they stands for both plural and gender-neural (when you don’t know whether the person you’re referring to is male or female).
