What were they thinking?

Oh shit, I just used the gender-neutral pronoun "they."

By “they,” I believe you mean “an unknown number of men and women.”

In this case yes, but "they" can also be all men, all women, or a single person of unknown gender.

For example: somebody called. What did they say?
