Listen, it isn't a matter of whether or not they have a confirmed gender. It's a matter of being grammatically correct. Gendered pronouns are only supposed to be used when referring to individuals. Our rule is not "All zombies and plants are gender-neutral", it's "All zombies and plants aside from unique characters are to be referred to as gender-neutral". With you being the local grammar nazi here I figured you'd be all for this rule. It's not a matter of the game's canon, it's a matter of using proper grammar. I don't care if a plant or zombie looks as male/female as can be, if it's not an individual, it's grammatically incorrect to refer to it with gendered pronouns. If I'm referring to just one specific plant of the Peashooter species (such as Green Shadow), I'll use gendered pronouns. But if I'm referring to just the Peashooter species in general, I'll use gender-neutral pronouns. This isn't rocket science. No matter how you look at it, plants and zombies in the tower defense games are hordes. There are more than one of each of them. They is not singular entities. Why is this so hard for all of you to understand?
