Could you give more examples of this effort to "remove gender" from language? Both the examples you give, I think, are not replacing words, just preferring more ambiguous words that don't assume a gender. I don't think these things should be political or really all that controversial. The examples you give also do (edit) NOT parallel the same issue with grammatical gender in another language, as we are simply talking about two or three different nouns, not their noun class.
