Well, I’m in favor of using the plural. The Romance languages have gender neutral pronouns, it seems the only place they survive in English is in the plural. Besides, I don’t think it is so bad.

Hey no flaming if any of youse disagree with me!

Yes, the Romance languages have an “it”, even the sky has a “sex” in any of them.
