SIBI-P2 (Context-Aware)
they will gouge it out
| Same as P1 | No — adjusted for context |
| Rationale | P1 'they will gouge her' is gendered; the subject is the 'eye' (feminine noun, but gender should not be emphasized in English; object pronoun should be 'it'), and English idiom is 'gouge out.' P2 clarifies the contextual action. |
