There is no reason to refer to an individual person as "they" or "them." The English language doesn't work that way, and we should not allow its rules to be rewritten illogically by tiny pressure groups with giant media megaphones.
Indulging this "they/them" nonsense destroys language and our ability to communicate - which is, of course, the ulterior motive behind all this. Bizarre insistence on using the lunatic Ezra Miller's "preferred pronouns" makes news reports about him incomprehensible.
Trans fascists are on firmer ground inventing new pronouns to add to the language besides "him" and "her", but that runs into the problem of them adding dozens of weird inventions that most people don't understand - which again destroys the coherence of language.
It's no surprise that people who want us divided, conquered, demoralized, and perpetually at war with each other would attack our common language, our ability to communicate and reason together. Of COURSE they want us to hesitate before we write or speak, fearful of punishment.
Do not surrender language and meaning to totalitarians. There is nothing oppressive about using clear language to convey facts and discuss ideas. The oppressors are the ones using compulsive force to make language comply with their ideology because they can't abide dissent. /end
