From a link in one of your links.....

Federal Reserve tells employees to avoid ‘biased terms’ like ‘Founding Fathers’

(snip) The guidance contains a list of “biased terms” to avoid, including “blacklist,” “grandfathered,” and “Founding Fathers.” Employees are instructed to use terms like “denied,” “legacy,” and “Founders” instead.

The Fed also said the terms “whitelisted, “manpower,” “manmade,” and “singular generic pronouns” – such as “he,” she,” “his,” and “hers” – should be replaced with more “bias-free” alternatives like “allowed,” “artificial,” and pronouns such as “they,” “their” and “theirs.”

I won’t refer to anyone as “they” unless HE or SHE has a mouse in HIS or HER pocket...
