Agreed. We already have a sex-neutral prounoun: “it”.
Plus, wouldn’t using “ze” be offensive to those who self-identify as French?

How are we to even know which pronoun or form of address to use, without somehow coming athwart of an unknown and unknowable abusive “microaggression” situation, when dealing with hypersensitive persons who are so easily offended?
Two rules to live by:
1. Do not be overtly impolite. Couch your criticisms in civil language, but project your displeasure in no uncertain terms.
2. Do not be easily offended. Consider that others may not share your prejudices and biases, or even understand them.

French nouns are all assigned a gender (le=masculine la=feminine) Will the French have to rewrite the language to include transgender articles like ze and za?

How about “it”?
How about he-she or she-he? Or She-it?
