    I know it can help new binary [[allies]] to say "both", but it contradicts the rest of the sentence by suggesting that there are only two genders. I think this could be viewed as sexist, even if the writer had good intentions.

    :{{ping|Otvm}} thanks for pointing out! I have rewritten the sentence, tell me what do you think about it now (I have also removed the contradiction of "their gender can be neither"). I just added "both ''binary'' genders", because while it's true that there are more genders, there are just two binary genders. --[[User:NeoMahler|NeoMahler]] ([[User talk:NeoMahler|talk]]) 23:58, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
