"hacker" isn't gendered.

Good! we'll need her in a few years once these kids' anxiety drives them out of the wokeforce
And what's wrong with husband? Or housekeeping?
How am I supposed to talk about my husband doing the housekeeping?
you say
"My Man Spouse is doing the domestic science"
Not sure about housekeeping but husband is gendered so I assume that is the "problem".
That seems like they don’t understand the word. I can’t think of many more communities more inclusive than hackers. It’s certainly not gendered either.
Are all gendered words banned?
