Singular and Plural

Language from a bank document:

“Any references in this agreement to gender include masculine, feminine, and neuter. Unless otherwise indicated by the context any singular references include the plural and any plural references include the singular.”

In other words: By they, we may mean he, and by he, we may mean she. And that goes double for you.
