"Meanwhile Hollywood now refers to actresses as “actors”.

And yet, for award purposes they still distinguish between, "Best Female Actor," and, "Best Male Actor."

Art Linkletter in Kids Say the Darndest Things mentions a kid who, when asked what she wanted to do when she grew up, answered: "I want to be an actress, like Jack Benny."

She was ahead of her time, linguistically.
