Yes, but I guess Oleg meant pronouns in documents.
In situations like 'When the user has to do something, firstly _he_
must do something else'.
In Russian pronouns have their own "gender" not necessarily connected
to a gender of real user who is reading the doc and in most cases such
pronouns are "masculine", that's why we don't concern to replace "he"
to "he/she" or somewhat else.
