[[Liberals]] sometimes redefine '''they''' to be a singular form that includes both "he" and "she". This is gramatically incorrect because "they" is a plural pronoun, while "he" and "she" are singular.  "He" is traditionally used to refer to both men and women, but the feminist movement has usurped this tradition because of its purported gender bias, and pursued a "politically correct" alternative.
