The use of "their" as you used it is not politically incorrect, it is just incorrect. "Their" is plural possessive. The un-PC thing to do is simply say "he" and "his." According to MLA, however, you should choose eitherr he or she and avoid the awkward he/she. Furthermore, fuck the ulta PC people.

Take it easy folks,

P.S. If you don't like the person making fun of you, say fuckoff and forget about it. If you do like the person making fun of you, ask him why he is doing it and decide whether it is healthy to place so much importance on the approval of others. Remember the Billioux brothers' motto "Fuck other people, because they are not me." This excludes the cool ass mother fuckas who we consider friends. Peace
