1. Alternate “he” and “she.” One solution is to alternate gender-specific pronouns (he and she) as they are needed in different contexts throughout a work.

2. Use the Third-Person Plural Pronouns. Sometimes changing the pronouns from the singular to the plural remedies the problem: He asked any student who knew the answer to raise their hand. (Although that usage is still frowned upon by some experts, the majority of style manuals now list it as acceptable.)

3. Change Entire Reference to Third-Person Plural. By changing the neutral “he” to “they,” the male-only reference can become inclusive without changing the meaning: He asked students who knew the answer to raise their hands.
