I would be much apreciative if it would be more universally accepted. I hate using he/she, and have actually seen it replaced in some (very few) grammar books as they. It seems acceptable to me, and as language continues to change I am sure it will gain full status, but until then, (s)he it is
I was tempted to make a statement in the intellectual test about my position on "they," and actually use it... though I couldn't figure out how I could. I'm adamant in my using of it.
