+Some people make a big deal about using "his" when referring to the user,
+thinking it means we assume the user is male.  That is of course not the case,
+it's just a habit of writing help text, which quite often is many years old.
+Also, a lot of the text is written by contributors for who English is not
+their first language.  We do not make any assumptions about the gender of the
+user, no matter how the text is phrased.  And we do not want to waste time on
+this discussion.  The goal is that the reader understands how Vim works, the
+exact wording is secondary.
