    Two things: Don’t misgender people, even the worst, and if you’re going to then at least get the pronoun correct. It would be “its”, it’s means it is, it’s not a posessive.

      What pronouns are wrong there? Feels like valid English to me.

      People get there and their wrong all the time.

        We already explained, but if we must spell it out: “it is advantage” doesn’t make any sense in this context.

        Also, the pronouns are wrong because they’re misgendering her.

          As far as I know you would use it in conjunction with the gendered asshole as you personify the person with a thing that has a neuter gender. In German it would have been correct independent of the gender of the person.

              True, but I have grown to accept those typos.
