Why guess? Just use gender neutral language I.e. "As x said in their post" rather than "as x said in his/her post"

I fully agree sometimes it feels like a pain, because you feel like you want to know, but ultimately it's not that big an issue.

If this had just been silently implemented it'd have just been accepted by the vast majority anyway.

It'd be good to have the option to not state though.
Thanks for this!
