    Oxfam has a downloadable guide to inclusive language that won't bother any of the many genders that have come on the scene. The altered language will only annoy the original two sexes and who cares about those crazy religious nazis? From the 92 page guide:


    TRIGGER WARNING A NOTE ON DISCOMFORT

    Please note that since this guide includes
    words and phrases that should be avoided,
    you may come across some that you consider
    discriminatory or that have been used
    historically to oppress certain people or groups.
    These may cause distress to people who have
    experienced discrimination on the basis of
    their identity. Given the nature of this guide, we
    understand that many of the issues it discusses
    are personal and emotive for many people. While
    naming oppressions is necessary to deconstruct
    them, we recognize that this can take a toll
    on those directly affected. Please take care
    in the reading of the guide and prioritize your
    wellbeing.
    (end of excerpt)

    I would add And now lay down on this soft bed. Life doesn't require thought or effort.
