title: 'gendertext: Detect Gendered Words in Text and Suggest Neutral Alternatives'
version: 0.1.0
abstract: Identifies gendered words and phrases in text using a built in dictionary
  of more than two hundred gendered terms paired with gender neutral alternatives.
  Reports the share of gendered language in a text, lists every gendered term found
  together with its suggested neutral replacement, and can rewrite a text in gender
  neutral form. Plain text files are read with base R, while other document formats
  such as PDF and Word are supported through the optional 'readtext' package. The
  dictionary is informed by published guidance on gender inclusive language, including
  the United Nations guidelines <https://www.un.org/en/gender-inclusive-language/>
  and the European Parliament guidance on gender neutral language.
