Although this would give ways to stuff like: La rana, el rano etc... Difficult, but logical in a structure like Spanish has. |

This is too funny.
We have seen the change in English. Our great-grandparents may have been happy with the words poetess, mayoress, executrix. I still feel comfortable with actor/actress,. In the world ballet prima ballerina/primier danseur are always used. I think legislating changes is extreme. Ideally changes occur naturally. In Spanish it's more complicated, because the structure of the language is so gender-oriented. In some ways English is truly modern, and it has been for centuries.(no tú and vd. and nouns don't have gender.)
