Gender-inclusive language

I note with interest Clayboy's comments on the use of Gender-Inclusive Language.  My view regarding the Book of Common Prayer and its "Traditional" language successors, to which I presume he is generally referring, is simple.  When the context for masculine use is generally positive - "for us men and for our salvation..." - this would clearly refer to all people, the "man" being used in the sense that "anthropos" is.  On the other hand, when it is something more like "that he may turn from his wickedness" - clearly that is referring to a male.  This is the tradition in all the communities of the Beakers.
