Grammar

Sexist language
Sexist language is language which excludes one sex or the other, or which suggests that one sex is superior to the other. For example, traditionally, he, him and his were used to refer to both sexes, male and female, but nowadays many people feel that this makes she, her and hers seem less important or inferior. It is best to avoid sexist language in order not to offend people.
He,she,him,her,his,hers
In writing, we can use (s)he, he/she, him/her or his/her to refer to both sexes at the same time. When speaking formally, we say he or she and his or her:
Suffixes-man, -master-womanand-ess
Many people feel that traditional uses of the suffixes -man, -master, -woman and -ess are sexist and outdated, so alternative, neutral forms are often used (m = male; f = female).
Nouns, adjectives and verbs withman
Some nouns, adjectives and verbs which include man are considered sexist nowadays. We can often use neutral alternatives:
