In the linguistic content that I looked at, while referring to someone unknown or someone in general, the author always uses "he" or "him"---male words. I feel that this phenomenon has appeared in many articles, papers, books nowadays. It has already formed a tradition that the general public is more represented by male than female, and this tradition is initiated and inherited by the pass when male dominates the society. Those male words are effective in representing the general public and indicating the issue, because no matter how we are trying to achieve gender equality, male dominance in society has already been an unchangable fact. Genderswapping pronouns make me feel that the statements become weaker, since female is innately weaker than male. Such a switch would make the statements unreliable.
