That's just word non-sense.

A male person whom acts is an actor and a female person is a an actress;
just because one is used interchangeably [in these /special/ times]
doesn't mean that it is /right/ ... I've always liked the idea that a
girl is a girl and a boy is a boy and that extends for males/females in
adulthood.

Other gender neutral terms are equally offensive to me when there is a
perfectly good gender version that doesn't need to be avoided.

Cheers
