Remove gendered language #182

Closed Chickenkeeper closed 4 months ago

Chickenkeeper commented 4 months ago

There are a few sentences on Odin's site which are worded in a way that assumes all users/programmers are a specific gender, which should be avoided.

The first C.A.R Hoarse quote on the FAQ page also uses similar gendered language. It feels irresponsible to alter/paraphrase it so I've left it unaltered for now, but I still want to bring attention to it to invite more input about how best to handle it.

The C.A.R. Hoare quote is best left alone. There's no way to change it without affecting its integrity.
