Judith Lam Tang writes in her essay “I Was a Bigoted Speech Therapist” about how she went from thinking “How can we make them refer to a single person? It’s too confusing!” to teaching her students about gender respectfully without relying on stereotypes.

I’m reworking my YA novel-in-progress, changing from third person close to first person POV. I accidentally left a sentence like this:
“I rolled her eyes.”
My teen came up with some nice additions, like:
“I rolled her eyes off a cliff.”
“I rolled her eyes across the table.”
Chime in.
