This document discusses the importance of using gender neutral language in teaching to avoid perpetuating gender biases and stereotypes. It defines the differences between sex and gender, noting that gender refers to socially constructed roles rather than biological attributes. Examples show how language can make assumptions that exclude or marginalize people of certain genders. Suggestions are provided for rewriting sentences in a more inclusive way, such as using plural pronouns instead of defaulting to masculine. The conclusion emphasizes that changing language can help change thinking and promote a more balanced cultural view.
