There are many gender-neutral or gender-other pronoun sets available to authors to use in situations where they wish to express something with a pronoun but do not wish to convey or suggest a gender. In these cases it may be handy to refer to this chart to help you navigate the wild waters of gender-neutrality or non-specificity:
