You have clearly not met some of the men I have. :) Stop making me laugh.

But, seriously, if you research the use of lanquage... you will find it common in the past to use a "generic" term like "their" when the sex of the person isn't clear. The plural of "their" was understood to be singural in that usage. Check out... what's her name?... uhm... that woman... dang... she had a bunch of siblings. Someone will get that question.
