Um, no. They don't.

Absolutely. When I grew up the words "he" and 'man' were used for any nondescript person and no effort was made to indicate that both males and females were included in the discussion. The pronouns "he" and "she" were only related to gender when they referred to a known person. And that was entirely driven by how the person "presented" themselves. Nobody ever thought of looking between their legs and comparing what they saw to how they were dress or how they acted.

If a female could 'present' themselves as a male, nobody gave a shite. Admittedly, if she were to have been found out to be 'cross-dressing' she would have been labelled a mental disorder (which I still believe it to be) and maybe not trusted with critical decisions.

Never in my life have I used the "he or she" affectation in speaking or in writing. I will admit to sometimes altering sentence structure to avoid having to do that, but only if it is not too difficult. I will use "he" to refer to some unknown individual without regard or apology.

I'd go to jail before I'd bow to that shite.

btw - I've always wanted to be sentenced to some sort of 'sensitivity training' but I got out of the standard workforce before it became as much of an irritant as it seems to be today. Surprisingly, it never came up in my latter years as a high school math teacher.

Lord Master Deplorable Pussy Grabber.

Tulane is, and has been for years now, an extremely left wing university. I started my under graduate there (later transferred to LSU). It's a southern hub for West Coast and Upper East Coast spoiled brats with all of daddy's money. Very few students are actually from Louisiana. Many are there on daddy's dime and not their academic prowess. Throw in a few extreme left professors and you end up with a liberal echo chamber in the heart of a dark red state.

Btw, is the weird guy that used to chill on his motorcycle outside of the union at night still hanging around?

This has been flying around my campus for the past several years - appended under the signature block:

He, him, his (Why add this? See more: https://bit.ly/gpronouns)

Did the Tulane student also make that graph in the article? Those sentences are quite basic for such an expensive education.

My Alma Mater is DISGUSTING

OP, I've heard as many as 80% of the student body is from out of state, many of those numbers from the West & Upper East Coast as noted here. Is that a realistic percentage?
