    In Dutch, “they” is the same word as “she” (ze/zij), even though the use is different. To resolve this, people who want to use a gender neutral pronoun have switched to using the Accusative “them” (hen), which is even more awkward in sentences.

    Just do what humans have always done: make up a new word. The pushback from assholes will be exactly the same anyway.

    former fatty here with a little addition: Also just eat less outside of your meals. Go diet in the supermarket by buying less, instead of dieting by not eating what have at home. You spend 20 minutes in the supermarket and multiple hours at home. It’s MUCH easier to be strong for 20 minutes than for 12 hours.
