Gender-inclusive language : ウィキペディア英語版 | Gender-neutral language
Gender-neutral language, gender-inclusive language, inclusive language, or gender neutrality is a form of linguistic prescriptivism that aims to eliminate (or neutralize) reference to biological sex or gender with regard to terms that describe people. For example, the words ''policeman''〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=policeman - Definition and pronunciation - Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary at OxfordLearnersDictionaries.com )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=policeman definition, meaning - what is policeman in the British English Dictionary & Thesaurus - Cambridge Dictionaries Online )〕 and ''stewardess''〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=stewardess - Definition and pronunciation - Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary at OxfordLearnersDictionaries.com )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=steward definition, meaning - what is steward in the British English Dictionary & Thesaurus - Cambridge Dictionaries Online )〕 are gender-specific; the corresponding gender-neutral terms are ''police officer''〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=police officer - Definition and pronunciation - Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary at OxfordLearnersDictionaries.com )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=police officer definition, meaning - what is police officer in the British English Dictionary & Thesaurus - Cambridge Dictionaries Online )〕 and ''flight attendant''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=flight attendant - Definition and pronunciation - Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary at OxfordLearnersDictionaries.com )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=flight attendant definition, meaning - what is flight attendant in the British English Dictionary & Thesaurus - Cambridge Dictionaries Online )〕 Other gender-specific terms, such as ''actor'' and ''actress'', may be replaced by the originally male term; for example, ''actor'' used regardless of gender.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=actor - Definition and pronunciation - Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary at OxfordLearnersDictionaries.com )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=actress - Definition and pronunciation - Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary at OxfordLearnersDictionaries.com )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=actor definition, meaning - what is actor in the British English Dictionary & Thesaurus - Cambridge Dictionaries Online )〕 Further, some traditionally gender-neutral terms, such as ''chairman'',〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=chairman - Definition and pronunciation - Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary at OxfordLearnersDictionaries.com )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=chairman definition, meaning - what is chairman in the British English Dictionary & Thesaurus - Cambridge Dictionaries Online )〕 are increasingly seen by some, but not all, as being gender-specific. Gender-neutral language may also involve the avoidance of gender-specific pronouns, such as ''he'', when the gender of the person referred to is unknown; they may be replaced with gender-neutral pronouns – possibilities in English include ''he or she'', ''s/he'', or singular ''they''. ==Terminology and views==
