ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Genderless language

Genderless language means using words that do not indicate a person's gender. For example, instead of saying "he" or "she," we can use words like "they" or "them." This way, we don't assume someone's gender based on their name or appearance. It's like playing a guessing game, but we don't want to make anyone feel left out or uncomfortable if we guess wrong. We just use words that work for everyone. Genderless language is important because it shows respect for people who don't identify with traditional gender roles or who may feel excluded by language that only uses "he" or "she."
