And if a woman had instead written in the generic feminine it wouldn’t flow well? And, if it didn’t, would that not highlight the absurdly oxymoronic idea of generic masculinity?

I'm just happy anytime I read an extended block of text in which the author doesn't switch back and forth between singular and plural pronouns when referring to one person.
Sad to say language evolved and they left you behind then, as it’s only ever been plural in the sense of a self and optional other(s).
