It'd all be easier if English had a gender neutral pronoun for humans.
That's the best solution.
He/she doesn't seem "unusual" to me - I think I grew up with it. But
you're right - it's a pain to repeatedly type and a pain to read as well.
I like how some people just do (s)he. That way you can read it any way
you want.
