      See anything wrong with this? @HeyitsAlexa is a girl, yet it says "his"? I think it is sexist to say "his" because you are basically thinking that only boys play infection. I would suggest changing all the "his" to "their" because to girls it may become offending

      I personally think it doesn't matter that much, but yes, you do get some people who are highly offended by it. I don't understand why but I reckon it could be changed from 'his' to 'their'.

      The only synonym that makes sense out of three kinds of "Theirs"
      -Their: Pointing specifically to a person or thing, either him/her/it
      -There: A place or form of expressing direction
      -They're: A shortened way of they are EXAMPLE: They are crazy or they're crazy (Shortened Form)

      There is no point
      Unless you have a new sentence instead

      Wow. After this long someone actually made a thread about this? There is no way to fix this but make a new sentence and add their.
