@TwistedTulip @FernLovebond @Virtualk Nah am old and it always was considered male gendered, have just become used to it being used gender neutral as well. One thing I've about being old is to only take on battles you have the energy and interest in to wage.
@Embers
Aye, the 'pick your battles' thing is largely throttled back for me these days for 2 reasons:
1) I can see that it'll be a lot of arguing for little or no return, or
2) I have a broader scope and can see the spectrum of opinon and don't necessarily have to be "right" about stuff so much (or there's room for lots of kinds of "right").
Besides all that, issues seem to be either too small to care about, or too big to actually discuss the full details.
