Denise,

As a publisher, I see the continued use of sexist (or, male-centric)
language as yet another artifact of the male-in-the-workplace-and-
female-at-home world that must be changed if women are to find equal
job opportunities and equal pay. Perpetuating one myth, even a
relatively minor one as the use of he exclusively in scientific
literature, allows for other more important myths to also continue.

The issue may not be important to you (perhaps because, as a woman,
you are used to adjusting the language to include yourself) but it is
important for men to intentionally include women in their view of the
scientific or employment world until such inclusion becomes automatic.
