    Not against Esperanto but creating a “universal language”and then making it gendered seems a little stupid.

    It’s not as bad as other languages on this front, but if I remember correctly there’s still no agreed-upon gender neutral singular pronoun in Esperanto is there?

    Mi forgesis, ke mi lernis ĉi tiun lingvon.

      There’s a daughter language called Ido that’s done away with gender, iirc. And I believe there’s some gender neutral ways to get around it in the community, but it’s been a long time since I’ve attempted to do anything with it
