PR adds some "or she/her".

Nice initiative! I like the idea of moving towards more inclusive documentation; as an addition, I would recommend using they/them/their instead - it's less clumsy to read (also, singular they is perfectly valid English) and includes everyone, even those who may not use either he/him or she/her pronouns :)

All in all, great initiative, I encourage you to keep going in that direction!

Yeap, Ammar just told me the same suggestion on GitHub :)

PR will be a little more ambitious now, as I'm replacing all he/him/she/her mentions.

Andrés, would you create PR for 2.7?
It can't be backported automatically.
msg319875 - (view) Author: Andrés Delfino (adelfino) * (Python triager) Date: 2018-06-18 10:35
Yes, of course!
