What is a non-gender specific way to specify a group of people when writing Chinese If you write 'they' (tāmen) in Chinese characters, you have to be specific about the gender: 他们 / 她们 / 它们
All of them mean 'they' but what do you use if you mean a group mixed with men and women?
他们 - "they" (men / men and women )

她们 - "they" (women )

它们 - "they" (objects)

*The term "它们" is rarely used. Most of the time, people would use "这些" (these)+ object or "那些"(those)+ object when referring a group of objects.
