Yes. Thats what we normally do.

You don't see me writing about how a certain gender or ethnic group are dumber than others (as a country man on HN I feel I am on the receiving end of that sometimes though).

For the definitions used here though, no: I have realized that once we start living by some of your rules you just invent more.

So I'm OK with not complaining about swearing and hope that others are OK with me writing a straightforward he/she or (s)he instead of spending valuable time on not offending people who are trying to be offended.
