Well you do have to allow for non-gender assigned options now, They. (I can hear Rich boiling up as he reads this.....) You are far too good at this predicting Alistair  I don't think I could tolerate todays workplace I did the right thing retiring early, me calling someone a great big girls blouse might not go down too well today...

They This is a different use than the traditional singular they, which is used to refer to a person whose gender isn't known or isn't important in the context, as in the example above.
