Okay, let's do it. "No gendered pronouns" day is next Wednesday, 11th July.
Everyone taking part defines their own limits; everyone promises to post about how it's going/ how it went for them.

Quick edit to add: here's the post for linking any write-ups of your experiences in taking part.

The thing that really sucks about Catalan is that even using proper names, you don't say "Robert", you often say "el Robert" or "la Cecilia". In the third person I can use "li" for everything, which is not really correct, but I am a foreigner, so they will cut me some slack.
It sounds like a fun challenge, though. As an English speaker, it is a huge struggle to shoehorn the idea of gendering everything (including inanimate objects) into your head, it will be interesting to see if I can shoehorn it out from the inside.
