So earlier today I wrote up my "Wif, Wer ..." post and then later today I finally created a Facebook account. [Note: I'm feeling awfully old in there. Maybe I'll get younger again as I get more familiar with that new territory.] And I notice the news feed uses my preferred epicene singular possessive pronoun "their" if the account-holder's gender is left unspecified ...
... as in, "Ilyse Kazar mentioned Mickey Mouse in their note Mousing About."
It's Pretty Amazing how quickly my new blog has changed the world. =8-o
