IDK ive used the singular they before the SJW thing was a thing if the person in question had an unknown gender or we were talking in general. I would also sometimes use he since it was both the masculine and neuter form of the third person singular historicaly, but due to language shift it did sound a little odd.

I dont mid "they" but I dislike when people say "He" is wrong since its perfectly grammatically correct, and If they have a problem with masc/neuter feminine divide, they shouldnt use the term women, or be aquatinted with pretty much any indo-europen language either.

My favourite pronoun is "one".

As in, "on 4chan, one must always respond to bait, no matter how low-effort."
