Please don't worry about it at all! Both Mark and I are always open to a privilege check, because we 100% want DW to be a place where everyone feels respected, and using inclusive language is in our guiding principles. I'm very sorry that I failed to live up to it, and I'm really glad both that you called me on it and that you felt safe enough to call me on it, so thank you.

Personally speaking, I am still doing work to raise my consciousness of gender issues and I know I have a long way to go -- this isn't the first time I've framed things in a binary fashion without realizing, because it's just been so ingrained in me for so long. I very much appreciate your reminder, and I'm sorry that you had to deliver it.
