http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender-specific_and_gender-neutral_pronouns

" gender-specific pronoun is a pronoun
associated with a particular gender, such as a
pronoun denoting female or male. Examples
include the English third-person personal
pronouns he and she.
A gender-neutral pronoun , by contrast, is a
pronoun that is not associated with a
particular gender, and that does not imply
male or female. Many English pronouns are
gender-neutral, including they, which can be
substituted in a singular use (he/she/they).
Many of the world's languages do not have
gender-specific pronouns. Others, however -
particularly those which have a pervasive
system of grammatical gender (or have
historically had such a system, as with
English) - have gender-specificity in certain of
their pronouns, particularly personal
pronouns of the third person.
Problems of usage arise in languages such as
English, in contexts where a person of
unspecified or unknown sex is being referred
to, but the most natural available pronouns
( he or she) are gender-specific. In such cases
a gender-specific pronoun may be used with
intended gender-neutral meaning, as he has
been used traditionally in English, although
she is now sometimes used instead. Use of
singular they is another common alternative.
Some attempts have been made, by
proponents of gender-neutral language , to
introduce invented gender-neutral pronouns."

The word "their" is used nowadays for "somebody"/"anybody" when the gender of the person is unknown.

It is used in place of "him"/"his".

Thanks for giving me the chance to teach. Jai Hind.
