\section{Comments on practical usage}
\subsection{Use of the switching and anaphoric forms}
-To see why two systems are needed, consider the following continuation of the example in (\ref{1}). If we implemented this by replacing each pronoun with a switching version, the result would be (\ref{switched}), which is ridiculous. Instead, we need subsequent pronouns to be anaphoric to the current gender state, as in (\ref{anaphoric})
