We should all go with "Zhe". It works universally and then there's no implied gender or lack thereof.

"What's Rain Man doing?" "Zhe's creating a poll."
"Is Halle Berry naked in that movie?" "Yes, zhe is and I like it."
"Is Elliott Page dating Michael Cera?" "No, zhe isn't. Zhe doesn't swing that way."

It makes all the sense in the world for society to switch to one gender-irrelevant pronoun.
Agreed. Altering the very construct of the English language by saying plurals don't mean what they mean anymore is a non-starter. Especially when we are talking about .5% of the population.
