    Agnifilo argues against this decision. He is a model prisoner

    The way the clothes they wear are flying off the shelves, and Luigi’s outstanding photogenic quality, you bet they’re a model prisoner.

          neutral gender is appropriate when the gender is unknown or for NB people. otherwise it is appropriate to use the known gender

            It’s also perfectly appropriate to say they. It’s not gendered

            I don’t know Luigi’s gender for certain, nor is it relevant to my statement. Neutrality is appropriate.

            Furthermore, I personally disapprove of gendered language in general. It’s pointless. I can’t think of one reason to keep that archaic tradition.
