@RCheesley sorry again for the delay with this PR. Can you merge with If that's too much of a hassle, you can create a new PR with only the relevant changes for this PR (i.e. cherry-picking fde6579 and 6f7caed) Thanks! |

@andreslucena hopefully just done that! |

@andreslucena anything else I need to do here? Looks like things are failing :( |

Merging with the netlify preview integration broken, as it actually compiles. We need to fix that in another PR. |

Hi folks!
👋 Intro
This PR is based on #147 (making it easier to find) and fixes #145 - it removes gendered references which are in the feminine, in favour of using gender-neutral they/them/their. I did not find any in the masculine (he/his/him).
🤔 What's it doing?
I've searched for instances of she or her, and replaced with the appropriate gender neutral term. In some cases a small re-write of the sentence is needed for grammatical reasons, and if I spotted an obvious typo at the same place I fixed it.
🛟 Considerations
In discussion with @andreslucena I understand Decidim prefers not to use contractions, so where I spotted them as I was working on a sentence, I fixed them (eg from don't to do not) to save fixing them in a later PR - figured it makes sense to fix as I saw them.
It might also be worth adding some guidance to writers to not use those gendered terms going forward.
