It'd make life easier. You wouldn't have to fuss about pronouns when first encountering someone. And there are languages that don't have them - some of which, I might add, belong to cultures with extremely high level of gender equality. There are scads of studies that demonstrate that words do affect the way we think, right down to our ability to recognize differences in shades.

So "won't do anything" is obviously false - I think you mean "won't complete eliminate the problem"? Which, well, no. People are shitheads. We love to use our differences as a way to make ourselves feel superior to others.

It's either no gendered pronouns or we go full Tumblr and create a pronoun for people who don't give a fuck and want to opt out of the entire shitshow that is sex-linked gender performance. People could opt in if it felt important to them and others could just be male/female/intersex attack helicopters.
