Lavender is a
firefox browser extension that converts gendered English pronouns (e.g., he, she, herself) to gender-neutral pronouns (e.g., ze, ze, hirself).
Gender-neutral pronouns are pronouns that do not specify the gender of their referents. Often, the gender of a person is not relevant to the message that the text carries. Moreover, not all people's gender identities are encompassed by the
gender binary that the 20th-
century english language imposes.
With Lavender, you can read the internet while the pronouns on the pages are converted to their gender-neutral equivalents. Gender-neutral English is now easy to learn! In case you decide it is not for you, it is also easy to turn off the add-on and switch back to mainstream English.
We are continuing to develop the add-on further, and it could be that not all pages are
translated optimally yet. Feel free to submit a bug report or improvements to the code on
github.
