I use gender neutral terms for my partner when posting online because anyone who thinks they need to know my or their gender for our anonymous online interaction is probably someone who I would prefer not know that detail of my life.
As a bonus, I provide some safety-in-normalcy for others who would actually get treated worse were there situation known.
