In the late 20th century, as the traditional use of he to refer to a person of either sex came under scrutiny on the grounds of sexism, this use of they has become more common. It is now generally accepted in contexts where it follows an indefinite pronoun such as anyone, no one, someone, or a person [11:56] <TheShadowAssassin> Hi Sato [11:56] <Obi the LEGO Fan> from the oxford dictionary [11:56] <Satoshi2> Uh oh, are we talking about the legislation [11:56] <Avalair> obi omg [11:57] <Avalair> I was just going there [11:57] <Obi the LEGO Fan> since the 16th century [11:57] <Psychos-R-Us> o/ [11:57] <Riolu777> Oh, no, Sato. :P [11:57] <Riolu777> We were (as) [11:57] <Obi the LEGO Fan> get with the times guys :P [11:57] <Psychos-R-Us> No, that was all day yesterday and most of today. :P [11:57] <Psychos-R-Us> Now it's genderfluid grammar.
