Woke San Diego BANS the use of 'he' and 'she' in future city policies and laws
San Diego banned the use of 'he' or 'she' in future city laws and policies to accommodate the roughly 1% of people nationwide who don't identify as male or female.
The traditionally conservative southern California bastion announced the progressive policy on Tuesday after a unanimous City Council vote.
Councilmember Raul Campillo and Council President Jennifer Campbell - both Democrats - proposed the Inclusive Language Policy, which was passed in July and approved by the Council this week.
According to the new policy, San Diego 'must draft its Council Policy Statements, regulatory legislation, proposals to amend the City Charter by ballot, and amendments to the current municipal code in a gender-neutral, non-binary manner when referring to a person or group of people to promote inclusive language in San Diego.'
Campillo was among a blue wave that swept into office after last year's elections, giving the Democrats an 8-1 supermajority on the City Council.
Moving forward, city policies will be required to use 'they' and 'their' instead of 'he' and 'she,' and to use words such as 'humankind' instead of 'mankind.'
'To truly be America's Finest City, we must be an inclusive and welcoming City for all,' Campillo said in a statement. He explained that the policy was necessary to: 'more properly reflect its diverse and dynamic residents and employees.'
Campbell, who identifies as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, also released a statement following the Council's approval.
'It is an important step to make our governance a more welcoming place for all of San Diego's people; especially those who do not see themselves reflected within a gender binary,' Campbell said.
San Diego became the fifth city in the country, and third in California, to enact such a policy. Oakland and Berkeley, along with Boston and Portland, Oregon, have already adopted similar inclusive language initiatives.

Liberals Want A Police Commissioner To RESIGN For A Shirt She Wore 25 Years Ago!
Another dangerous joke
Just because of the T-shirt she wore 25 years ago, Philadelphia’s acting Police Commissioner feared losing her job.
Philadelphia City Council hearing on racist social media posts by police officers took a dramatic turn when Coulter apologized for a controversial t-shirt she wore in the 1990s, prompting a councilwoman to call for her resignation.
Christine Coulter ignited an uproar when a 25-year-old photo showed her donning a white T-shirt with the words, “L.A.P.D. We Treat You Like a King,” written in black. The T-shirt seemed to joke about the beating Rodney King got from police officers with the Los Angeles department.
The T-shirt has been interpreted as a reference to the beating of King in 1991 by four Los Angeles officers, which was videotaped.
According to The Philadelphia Inquirer, Coulter said she didn’t realize at the time that the shirt was an apparent reference to the highly publicized King beating, but said she was “profoundly sorry” for wearing it, nonetheless. She previously said the photo had been taken during a gathering with other officers at the Jersey Shore when she policing the city’s 25th district.
At the time the picture was taken, Coulter was at the New Jersey beach with a couple of her fellow officers. She told the members present at the hearing that she didn’t believe that the t-shit referenced King, but she still apologized.
“My heart has been broken over this. There are folks in this room who I have served in their communities who know my heart and know that for 30 years I have served in black and brown communities with all that I ever have to give, never treating people unfairly or unjustly because of their race. Even people I’ve had to arrest, I treated like gentlemen or gentle ladies going through the process,” Coulter added.
After her statement, city councilwoman Cindy Bass read a letter that she had written to Mayor Jim Kenney, calling for Coulter’s immediate resignation.
