You mean "their"? "Their" has always been a fucking pronoun you moron.

One that has always made more sense to use since something like his/her uses more ink (which costs money) and is just simpler to write.

You're just retarded.

"his/her" takes up more space than "their" and means the same thing.

i was thinking the same thing, brevity is good here because card text is getting a bit longer/more complicated anyway

iirc some early yu-gi-oh cards used 'his or her' as well, but they changed to gender-neutral terminology much sooner to save real estate

pic related was the first thing that came to mind when i saw this thread, but i'm pretty sure there were other cards that used 'his or her' multiple times in the text, it just looked silly

but "their" has always been a gender-neutral pronoun that also flows much better than his/her? what kind of shit bait even is this?

if anything his/her is even more cucked to me because it sounds like someone who wants to say "his" or "her" but is trying hard to be inclusive where their can be whatever, what if you're playing against a computer/AI?

not OP but they did used to use 'his or her'. this is a good change though, everyone says their in real life

They probably used his or her for some of the earlier cards so as to not alienate female players.
>>37378042
his/her is not grammatically correct though. It either needs to be "his or her" or "their".

Also incorrect, "their" is both singular and plural.

This is exactly the same as how words like "you" are both, you can say "you are wrong" and it can refer to both a single person or a group of people being wrong.

This isn't up for debate.

"You" used to only be plural while "thou" was the singular

What forcd on earth prevents "they" from becoming singular (which happened hundreds of years ago already anyway) like "you" did?

Nope. Formal writing, such as scholarly work, only cares about the word "they" if it somehow introduces ambiguity, such as if the reader doesn't know who or which "they" you are talking about.

Big difference between colloquialisms and proper English. I suppose that line has blurred with SJW types pushing for gender neutral speech.
