Masculine default

Anyone else have a problem with this approach of the assumption that masculine is the default? 

 “Generally in this course, the masculine forms are the default forms. This means that we only provide a notation to indicate feminine forms. However, since there are some words in this lesson that can be used with either masculine OR feminine nouns, we have marked the masculine forms as well to make things as clear as possible.”

Hi Arden,

Thanks for bringing this up. While our course tends to default to masculine forms, it's not an endorsement of gender bias but rather a reflection of traditional language usage. We provide a notation for feminine forms whenever applicable to ensure inclusivity. 

If you have any further suggestions or feedback, please feel free to share them.

Thank you :) 

Yes! I too thought that was an unfortunate default statement. Thanks for bringing it up, Arden!
