Honestly, having gendered categories helps ramp up the drama during awards shows. Actors and actresses tend to be the biggest names so viewers tune in specifically to see them.
In a world divided into male/female for millennia, demanding that everything suddenly become gender neutral is rather presumptuous--plus it's unclear what major problem is being solved by doing so.
Don't fit into a category neatly? Choose one. We do it already when determining who should be nominated for Best Actor vs Best Supporting Actor, for example |
