From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

As I mentioned, people are perfectly free to open a new thread if new conflicting information does come forward.

This thread started out as a rehashing of discussions we've already had in the recent past. This approach was the conclusion of those threads. I believe any community discussion hoping to change our approach should arise from new information.

And I do maintain that this is largely an English language issue, and that, grammatically speaking, singular they/them is most appropriate to these circumstances. Titan thinks so too, even if they've only found occasion to use such language in BTS blurbs for now.


In-narrative with a different character, Orr, singular they/them is clearly established in Aliens Among Us as the correct set of pronouns for an individual who is not always identifiable as "he" or "she". The characters slip up, some of them assume one set of gendered pronouns and then get confused as to what to call them, but it is clearly established that they/them is the way to go with Orr.
