@IsolationQueen "Gender should be included in ALL games regardless of your personal feels."
Right now your personal feelings are saying game developers have no right to make a game the way they want if it contradicts your world view. You sound insecure.
"You don't get to decide someones gender only them and doctors get those rights."
First of all, it isnt a right. Rights are social constructs. This is a matter of truth vs false. You don't choose your gender, your DNA does which determines your sex and your gender is your biopsychological behavior that helps you fulfill your biological role. For example, women have breasts. What are they used for? Feeding the young. How does nature motivate you to utilize them? Through the traditional feminine gender behavior that attracts mates and seeks an offspring (as the goal of sexual attraction is to motivate reproduction). It's not a fabrication of personal dreams and thought- if they think it is, they are very not self aware or able to rationalize their emotions. And that involves tossing away your ego to accept.
"Masculinity is toxic."
And you arent? Are you even listening to yourself? You dont even know what masculinity is. Traditional masculinity and feminity is the whole reason humans advanced. Males have testosterone (adds aggression) and on average bigger builds in order to protect and provide resources for society while women are more sensitive and have breasts, for the purpose of rearing and nurturing the future generation. Domestic violence isnt masculinity, it's called being a brute that both sexes are capable of. It goes against natural design and is based solely on the desire for dominance in an ineffective manner.
You're just an angsty insecure troll. Your crusade against human nature is the reason why depression is on the rise around. People are being forced to censor and repress their inner human at the desires of the weak in heart and mind.
The emotional sensationalism here needs to be put to an end. The whole thing about cross dressing is so misunderstood due to sensationalism of a group that isnt even 5% of the population, yet they cry that cross dressing is "normal" and must be represented in the way they see fit in order to hide their own insecurities of who they are and paranoia on how others see them. People who don't know the biopsychological/evolutionary perspective are also doomed to fall prey to sensational rhetoric being pushed here. Have the courage and integrity to be honest with yourself- it will make you happier and more at peace. Yes, cross dressing is abnormal when your intent is to represent yourself as the opposite sex and you believe it. Does being abnornal make you less of offender person? No, it doesnt- you can't help it. Your brain just has a miswiring, that's all. You still have potential as anybody else. Gender clothing exists because human nature has always kept differences between males and females in order for there to be social cohesion and effective formation of families to build society (there is science as to how clothing makes the opposite sex appear more appealing). That's how we are. Now, when the intent of cross dressing is to fulfill a goal such as rescuing a character (like in this game) or defending your home and armor was only made for men (Joan of Arc), or for even humor purposes (like in this game again), then cross dressing is fine and understandable, because the intent isnt to destroy natural gender roles and appearance.
But no, insecurities and those suffering from cognitive dissonance that make up a very tiny portion of society have to come in with their paranoia and ruin everything. It shames me that we regressed as a society to this point where the minority control the culture and dictate what is acceptable, because they can't accept themselves for what they are and feel the need to pressure society to change for them and force people to adhere to their narrow ideas of morality. News flash, morality is relative- it's not a universal law. It's been changing and flip flopping for generations. Why? Because it's an abstract concept with roots in culture, human survival instincts, philosophy, religion, and more.
In short, stop being so self righteous and stop crying for representation in the way you want. Your feelings do not triumph in the end. If society is truly progressive, we would focus more on what is true or false and not what is right or wrong.
@Jimjammyjammerz First of all, grow up and stop with your illogical emotional sensationalism.
Secondly, yes, it is bizzaro world when it comes to backwards regressive emotional sensationalism with no logical rationality and your level of insecurity.
Now, black people do have big lips- that's part of their ethnic identity. Dumb? Considering we have rappers representing the black population, its understandable why we would come to a conclusion such as that. Regardless, you thinking blacks having big red lips is bad representation despite it being true for a big portion of their race probably shows that maybe you are the racist. And your description of Chinese people does fit ethnic Chinese if you had any slight knowledge of history and ethnic clothing and appearance back in the day. Please stop with your ignorance.
I dont know who you are but my best assumption is that you are either insecure or have been fed false information by a fabricated reality you created for yourself instead of calming down and composing your emotions. This regressive sensationalism needs to end. If you call it discrimination for physically representing people how they actually are, you just are insecure living in a state of denial.
