    Since gender pronouns are so so dangerous, how about we call everyone they/them?

      How about just eliminate pronouns altogether. Don’t see any reason are such an essential part of language. Just don’t use pronouns at all. Why can’t all just agree to? 's not like are even nessecary.

        Jack, Jill, and John went on a walk. [they] Found an apple. [she/Jill] ate it. A farmer yelled at [them].

        Fuck, without pronouns you have to repeat the noun to specify who did what.
