Going a bit far with pronoun usage again

Railway company apologises to non-binary passenger for "Ladies and Gentlemen" greeting

Quote:While commuting on the LNER, Laurence Coles, a train guard and LGBTQ+ rep for the RMT union, became uncomfortable after the conductor used the gender-exclusive phrase.

Taking to Twitter, Coles expressed their disappointment for the employee’s language.

“‘Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls….’So as a non-binary person, this announcement doesn’t actually apply to me so I won’t listen,” they tweeted.
