Not to me. Gender-neutrality is for the cases when the gender is unknown 
or the subject is generic, e.g. "A person". I would assume that you are 
likely to know the gender of a friend, in which case 'they' makes no 
sense here.

When I used to play Dark Age of Camelot, there was one line of text that 
annoyed me to no end. Anytime someone summoned their horse, you would 
see a message like this:

"Dougal mounts their horse."

Wrong, wrong, wrong!
