In Rihana-ye, every speaker's choice of pronoun identifies him/her as adult
male, adult female, or unisex child. Presumably one could choose to use a
pronoun which represented one's chosen gender rather than one's biological sex,
though as far as I know no one has actually done that (in other words, I've never
invented a text in which someone did it.) There is a plural form for group of
persons of both sexes, and one could create a back-formation for singular
person of both sexes, though again there is no text for it.John Leland
