I fear in „human“ there is still a man, even in every woman there‘s a man, as in female there is a male. Overall it looks as if English is not suitable for gender neutral language, everything refers back to men. I propose to use German as the language for tags. It might look like an impossible endeavor at first glance to retag those millions or billions of objects, but if you dig deeper you will find that many tags are already more German than English, so ultimately it wouldn’t be as much change as it may sound initially.
