I gave a brief peer review of Alexis' It’s Singular They, Or So They Say on Not Very Onomatopoeic.
I mostly gave content suggestions. I suggested that both of the counter-arguments be strengthened to better fit the form of a public argument. I also gave a resource recommendation. I know that professors in the linguistics department could help with information to ground the subject in.
I think I helped show an area of weakness in the essay and showed how it could be improved.
Alexis did an excellent job in making her essay interesting by connecting it to the human struggle underlying the argument. I hope to due the same in my essay though it may not be as effective since string theory is not nearly as personal an issue as gender identity.
