When talking about something that could be either gender, do you use...
He/she, he, or they?
Technically, as far as I know, they isn't correct, so I try to avoid it when I'm writing a paper. Usually, I use he because it sounds much better than he/she, but this year my extremely feminist teacher almost failed me when I did that, so I stopped.
What do you use?

Like an appointment with a Doctor where all I know is the surname, It's not because of some deep seated anti-female doctor views it's just because 90% of my Doctors have been Male.
