You cannot find a better a better sentence than one starting with "Women must also"?

How about: "Some people, regardless of gender, can perpetuate or reinforce gender roles through speech, action or inaction."

"Some people should be willing to give up traditional gender roles."

I think you're abstracting this a little too much. The sentence you constructed would be useful to describe this in general, but in this case PuffinBlue is talking about a specific case where this language isn't entirely useful.

I agree that that type of language should be used in general (and I make a concerted effort to use it, even in my native tongue where sex is strongly denoted), but IMHO it's useless when describing specific scenarios.
