i think having guardsman and guardswoman is just silly.

a female guardsman is still a guardsman, the title is generic.

I agree about the female titles. I dislike seeing "journeywomen" walking about. But I might just be weird. I call female actors "actors" and I call female flight attendants "stewards" (or "flight attendants") and I prefer the terms "police officer" to "policeman" and "firefighter" to "fireman"... Just to avoid "policewoman" and "firewoman" because they feel demeaning to me.

Just reminds me too much of Smurfette.

Heyo,

>>And until or unless you are female, I don't think you have a say in the matter.

Just because one of your characters had a sex change from male to female doesn't make you any more, or any less, of a female than Glemm :)

I don't know about you, but I'm a Gor'tog in real life.

A female one, at that... and yes, I like the women titles.
