Here is a direct quote from a grammar worksheet I got from English class (bcus kids txt 2 mch):
"A personal pronoun must agree in gender with its antecedent. When a singular antecedent refers to a category of persons that may include both males and females, you may avoid sexist language by using the phrase his or her, rather than his."
That just reeks of political correctness, doesn't it?

I'm afraid that I'm hopelessly an "old person" now. I used to embrace technology (cell phones, dvr's, sliced bread...)but texting is just a bridge too far.
