They may not have pronouns like ‘she’ or ‘her’, but I’m sure they have words for ‘woman’, ‘mother’, ‘sister’.

That’s not a gender-free language.

The Duchess of Sangwich is quite dull.

The derps use 'X' in LatniX to replace the 'A' or the 'O' (latina/latino). You see, in the Spanish lengua, words end in either 'a' or 'o' to denote the feminine or the masculine, so in a sense, the words have 'genders'.

You are right. I was referring to the lack of gender for pronouns, which, with a few exceptions is the role gender plays in English. Yet the feminists demanded that he and she be replaced by ‘they’. As you likely know, virtually all nouns in Spanish, French, German, etc. are assigned a gender—something that confounds English-speaking beginners to those languages.
